The Washing of the Spears

Albert and Jack struggle to hide their relationship as the war comes to a head, and the final battle at Babanango draws near.

'Say you'll stay with me?'

'Always.'

Devastated by losses, including the death of much beloved Captain McGonagle, Lieutenant Bond and his batman Jack Coleman find themselves heading towards the main column of the British Army, under the leadership of Commandant Flambard.

But when Coleman sustains a life-threatening injury, Bond is left to grapple with the idea of losing the man he loves, and the heartbreak he knows will follow. In his panic-stricken state, he struggles to keep up pretences, and the truth of their relationship becomes increasingly difficult to hide.

As the Anglo-Zulu War comes to a head, and the final battle at Babanango draws near, will their ill-fated love survive the horrors of war? Or will they, and their love story, be lost forever?
