Summary |
Missing Presumed Dead is Gerard Reed's personal journey to discover what became of Heinrich Bornkamp, a German soldier of World War One, whose wallet he discovered in a collector's shop window in Adelaide, South Australia. Gerard felt connected to past lives as the wallet revealed its secrets, telling a story of loss and love thwarted by war. Bornkamp's wallet was a link to a loss in Gerard's family as his great uncle Pat Murphy was 'missing presumed dead' in World War One. Gerard felt compelled to seek some resolution for this man whose family had kept the door unlocked for the day he would return: a day that never came.--Kanopy |
