<p><strong>Spring 1940</strong> ¿ a dense sea fog envelopes the north Cornish coast just south of Trevose Head and the treacherous Quies rocks. Lurking nearby is a German submarine, stranded after its engines failed. When two local children row their small boat to investigate this strange shape in the water, a chain of events is unleashed that will change lives forever.</p><p><strong>Summer 1985</strong> ¿ shortly after leaving a Test match at Lord¿s, the quiet and solitary Frank Fox stumbles on what appears to be an attack on a young girl in a park in St John¿s Wood. Despite his age and aching bones, Frank overcomes the assailant and rescues the child. But what seems like a random event is not what it seems as Frank is thrown into a dark political underworld of terror.</p><p>Can these two seemingly separate, distant worlds meet? <strong><em>Quies Rocks</em></strong> is the story of a family destroyed by war and rebuilt, decades later, by extraordinary circumstance.</p>
