'He's got no one else . . . and nowhere else to go. After all those years, he's found his son and you've found your father. Doesn't that mean anything to you?"
Turned away by his own son, Cessie's long-lost grandfather finds himself in the place he fears most - a nursing home called Shangri-La.
Only Cessie loves him and is determined to help him escape and unravel the truth of his past. A past that comes to him only in glimpses - a lifeboat, a tin of condensed milk, a terrifying night on the beaches of Dunkirk in World War II.
