Monte Carlo
Terrin, Peter, 1968-2017
Book
Monaco, May 1968. Just before the start of the Formula 1 Grand Prix, when the beau monde mingles with the drivers and their racing cars before the eyes of the world press, the entire grandstand is witness to a terrible incident. Within seconds, two lives are changed forever: from that day forward, Jack Preston, a simple mechanic for Team Lotus, will bear the scars from which he shielded Deedee, a budding film star and the embodiment of the new social mores. Returning home to his wife, in a remote English village where the drab atmosphere of the 1950s has yet to recede, Jack begins to piece his life together.
