Meer over het boek

A heart-breaking historical tale of love and hope set at the end of the Great War. 'Hopeâe(tm)s unblinking prose is reminiscent of Vera Brittainâe(tm)s classic memoir Testament of Youth' - New York Times Remembrance Day 1920: A wartime secret connects three womenâe(tm)s lives: Hettie whose wounded brother wonâe(tm)t speak; Evelyn who still grieves for her lost lover; and Ada, who has never received an official letter about her sonâe(tm)s death, and is still waiting for him to come home. As the mystery that binds them begins to unravel, far away, in the fields of France, the Unknown Soldier embarks on his journey home. The mood of the nation is turning towards the future âe" but can these three women ever let go of the past?
