Malcolm Archibald 
Now I Am A Soldier 

Against the turbulent backdrop of the 1930s, Douglas Tulloch navigates the treacherous terrains of India’s Northwest Frontier and the early tremors of World War II in France. Thrust in the middle of tribal rebellions, covert missions and old-school rivalries, Tulloch grapples with the true essence of leadership. The repercussions of his decisions will follow him from the alleys of Brussels to the shores of Dunkirk.

Tulloch’s mettle is put to the test, as confrontations with Italian spies, confrontations with old adversaries and the moral intricacies of warfare push him to the brink. Sometimes, the line between right and wrong isn’t as clear as the ‘Thin Red Line’ he admired as a boy.

The first novel in Malcolm Archibald’s ‘Tulloch at War’ series, NOW I AM A SOLDIER is an intimate portrait of a soldier’s journey, from cadet to battle-hardened officer.
