Critical Praise
“Continuing with the skill and grace she exhibited in her bestselling debut SOMEWHERE IN FRANCE, Jennifer Robson returns with mastery once more to the World War I era...Robson does more than personalize the unfathomable; she evokes true beauty by showing the hope and courage in rebuilding lives and the promise of a world born anew. This is a moving and memorable book.”
