Overview

A Royal Marine Vanishes. A Mother's Search Begins. A Nation Remains Haunted.In the early hours of August 8, 1980, nineteen-year-old Royal Marine Alan Addis stepped out of a party in a remote Falkland Islands settlement and was never seen again. What began as a presumed accident soon spiralled into one of the most enduring and unsettling mysteries in British military history.Was it a tragic misstep in the desolate Falklands wilderness? Or something far more sinister?Despite decades of investigations, exhaustive searches, and a grieving mother's relentless pursuit of the truth, no body has ever been found. No one has ever been charged. And the silence surrounding Alan's disappearance has only deepened with time. This unresolved mystery has troubled many in the Falklands, not least because twenty-seven of his comrades perished retaking the islands from Argentine invaders just two years later.Written by an author with deep ties to the Falklands, this gripping book unravels the tangled web of theories, examines overlooked clues, and dares to ask the questions others won't.
