The First Eu

An Alternate History

This is a story about a group of young people who go on a whirlwind journey from resisting the Nazi occupation to significant collaboration.

Tim Handle is an engineer on a secret project in the UK arms industry. He has a rather complicated love life. After the German invasion of 1942, he leaves his job and goes into hiding on a farm in the Midlands with his girlfriend. Their aim is to eventually join the resistance.

Tim’s abandoned wife, Florence, is pregnant. She goes into hiding under a false name in Scotland with another group of young people having similar intentions.

The English and Scottish collaborators join together in ways they never expected to radically change the United Kingdom forever.
