Description
LOVE GAVE THEM STRENGTH. LOVING EACH OTHER GAVE THEM COURAGE.
Britain and her allies are engaged in a long war with Germany.
Grace is the daughter of landed gentry, volunteering as a nurse on the Western Front.
Will is the son of a dockworker, driven to enlist by a sense of patriotism and the thrill of adventure.
When their lives collide in a field hospital in France, they form a passionate connection.
This is a sweeping and sumptuous WW1 drama and historical epic, perfect for fans of Ken Follett, Kate Mosse and Jeffrey Archer.
