The Fleetwood Half-Orphan Asylum tells the story of two brothers left in an orphanage in 1927. One runs away.

The Fleetwood Half-Orphan Asylum tells the story of two brothers left in an orphanage in 1927. One runs away. When they next meet, 30-odd years later at their fathers deathbed, they fight. Another 30-odd years on, the son of one brother receives a parcel and a promise of family secrets. Its a story of brotherhood, what caring means, of love and the absence thereof.Don Nordberg is the author of Corporate Governance: Principles and Issues (Sage, 2010) and The Cadbury Code and Recurrent Crisis (Palgrave, 2020) and has held professorial roles at City, University of London, and Bournemouth University.
