Fiction
The International bestselling author of Somewhere in
France
returns with her sweeping second novel—a tale of class,
love, and freedom—in which a young woman must find her
place
in a world forever changed. After four years as a military nurse, Charlotte Brown is
ready to leave behind the devastation of the Great War.
The
daughter of a vicar, she has always been determined to
dedicate her life to helping others. Moving to busy
Liverpool, she throws herself into her work with those
most
in need, only tearing herself away for the lively dinners
she enjoys with the women at her boarding house. Just as Charlotte begins to settle into her new
circumstances, two messages arrive that will change her
life. One, from a radical young newspaper editor, offers
her
a chance to speak out for those who cannot. The other
pulls
her back to her past, and to a man she has tried, and
failed, to forget. Edward Neville-Ashford, her former employer and the
brother
of Charlotte’s dearest friend, is now the new Earl of
Cumberland—and a shadow of the man he once was. Yet under
his battle wounds and haunted eyes Charlotte sees glimpses
of the charming boy who long ago claimed her foolish
heart.
She wants to help him, but dare she risk her future for a
man who can never be hers? As Britain seethes with unrest and post-war euphoria
flattens into bitter disappointment, Charlotte must
confront
long-held insecurities to find her true voice . . . and
the
courage to decide if the life she has created is the one
she
truly wants.
