An accomplished novel from a talented writer, Letters to the
Lost is a stunning, emotional love story. Iona Grey's prose
is warm, evocative, and immediately engaging; her characters
become so real you can't bear to let them go. I promised to love you forever, in a time when I didn't know
if I'd live to see the start of another week. Now it looks
like forever is finally running out. I never stopped loving
you. I tried, for the sake of my own sanity, but I never
even got close, and I never stopped hoping either. Late on a frozen February evening, a young woman is running
through the streets of London. Having fled from her abusive
boyfriend and with nowhere to go, Jess stumbles onto a
forgotten lane where a small, clearly unlived in old house
offers her best chance of shelter for the night. The next
morning, a mysterious letter arrives and when she can't help
but open it, she finds herself drawn inexorably into the
story of two lovers from another time. In London 1942, Stella meets Dan, a US airman, quite by
accident, but there is no denying the impossible,
unstoppable attraction that draws them together. Dan is a
B-17 pilot flying his bomber into Europe from a British
airbase; his odds of survival are one in five. In the midst
of such uncertainty, the one thing they hold onto is the
letters they write to each other. Fate is unkind and they
are separated by decades and continents. In the present,
Jess becomes determined to find out what happened to them.
Her hope-inspired by a love so powerful it spans a
lifetime-will lead her to find a startling redemption in her
own life in this powerfully moving novel.
