Born at the beginning of the twentieth century into the slums of London's East End, Charlie Trumper dreams of following in his grandfather's footsteps and becoming a fruit and vegetable street-seller. When his grandfather suddenly dies, young Charlie sets out to make a name for himself, but the onset of the First World War interrupts his ambition. An epic journey that spans three continents and sixty years, Charlie must navigate the triumphs and disasters of the century while overcoming a bitter enemy - and rival - made on the battlefields of France to fulfil the dream his grandfather inspired.
