Stanley Thomson

The story is set in Post WW2 Edinburgh as an anecdote of 70 year old Scottish born Australian, Craig Erskine.

 

He has made the first return journey to his birthplace since leaving for Australia in 1958. He goes to the family house to where his mother brought him as a new born. It was while living at number 356 Easter Road Leith, that he experienced a close call with death, a family betrayal and witnessed a severe threat to the operation of an International Welfare Organisation.

 

The politically clandestine use of this respected organisation was a strongly held secret even to this day and was learnt anecdotally by the author.
