The Jolly Rogues

By: Hinton, J. M.

World War I is raging far beyond the trenches of Europe, reaching deep into the harsh and unpredictable landscapes of East Africa. Lieutenant Edward Carter arrives expecting a quieter front, only to find a war shaped by blistering heat, vast savanna, and an untamed wilderness that tests every weakness a man has.

When a supply train breaks down in the middle of nowhere, Eddy and Belgian officer Adrien DeWitt are forced into a brutal march through the wilds. Exhausted and half-delirious by the time they reach help, they quickly realise nothing about this theatre resembles the war they knew. Orders are vague, dangers strike without warning, and the soldiers they're assigned to march beside operate far from the rigid structure of the Western Front.

Drawn into a conflict where survival depends on instinct as much as discipline, Eddy and Adrien must adapt to a world where the enemy is only part of the danger. The land is merciless, trust is fragile, and every decision carries consequences no training prepared them for.

In a corner of the world where nothing is certain, the greatest challenge isn't just staying alive - it's learning who to rely on when the rules of war no longer apply.
