"Brandon is just the kind of man' said Willoughby one day when they were talking of him together',' whom everybody speaks well of, and nobody cares about; whom all are delighted to see, and no one remember to talk to." Jane Austen ~ Sense and Sensibility

He is dark and brooding, always carefully tucked in a corner. There is a wall around what is left of his heart that keeps everyone out. Little is known of Colonel Brandon's history, his best friend John Middleton is his only confidant. Meet Christopher Brandon as a child at Delaford and watch him grow into a young man full of hope and love only to see it taken from him so cold-heartedly. What happens to man thrust into a foreign war? Can these events explain his solitude and solemnity? Will a young ward and the Dashwood family change him forever?

Second Edition, with all-new chapters and expanded content.
