Nick Harrieson’s life takes an unexpected turn when he is accused of sexually harassing one of his female students.
While awaiting the hearing of his case he decides to investigate some family history regarding his grandfather. Some of his discoveries are heartbreaking and some are astounding: his grandfather’s terrible death as a prisoner of war, and his links to Ernest Hemingway which show the famous literary icon in a new and unflattering light.
Through his research, Nick also embarks on a personal journey of love, self-exploration, and honesty. Life will never be the same once the truth comes out.
Lawyer Dermot Ross is based in Auckland. Hemingway’s Goblet is Dermot’s debut novel.
