00:00Cheers!
00:02Three years ago, I retraced my great-grandfather Frank Griffith's epic World War II escape
00:08after he was shot down dropping supplies to the French Resistance.
00:11On my journey, I tracked down and met descendants of people who'd saved Frank,
00:16total strangers who shook my hand, hugged me and even cried in front of me.
00:21This is what inspired me to write my debut book, Operation Pimento.
00:25Operation Pimento is not only a riveting Second World War escape story,
00:29but also my emotional journey across Europe in Frank's footsteps.
00:34I'd love to share our stories with you, so please do pre-order a copy on Amazon, Waterstones
00:39or through your local bookshop, and let me know what you think of the cover in the comments.
00:44Thanks.
