It is 1916 and Edith Mellor is one of the few female surgeons in Britain. Compelled to use her skills towards the war effort, she travels to the Somme, where she is confronted with the horrors at the front. Yet amongst the bloodshed on the battlefield, there is a ray of light in the form of working class Albert, a corporal from London's East End. Despite being worlds apart, Edith and Albert can't deny their attraction to each other. But as the brutality of war reveals itself to Albert, he makes a drastic decision that will change both of their lives forever.In the north of England, strong-minded Ada is left heartbroken when Jimmy, her only remaining son, heads off to fight. Desperate to rebuild her shattered life, she takes up a position at the munitions factory. But life deals her a further blow when she discovers that her mentally unstable sister, Beryl, is pregnant with her own husband's child. Soon, even the love of gentle Joe, a supervisor at the factory, can't lessen Ada's pain. But a chance encounter with Edith's cousin, Lady Eloise, brings Edith into her life. Together, they realize, they may be able to turn their lives around . . .'Wood is a born storyteller' Lancashire Evening Postfacebook.com/HistoricalNovels
