More DescriptionIn 1961, no Virginia prep schoolboy married his mistress, but Parker Strathmore was in love with Gidra. Gidra threatened everything his affluent family stood for. Born into war, Gidra had no last name, no birth date, and no history a polished society would accept. Torn apart by family bias and anticommunist politics, will Parker and Gidra survive in A Place Among the Thistles?Set in the pre Vietnam era, A Place Among the Thistles follows the lives of two children who survived WWII; Parker, born wealthy in the United States and Gidra, forced into prostitution while in Eastern bloc Europe. Swept up by history for the second time and torn apart by the early social upheaval of the 1960s, Parker and Gidra continue to fight and sacrifice in the hope of being reunited.
