About this listen

She wanted a new life. Now she’s risking it to save others.

Cecily Hanson longs to live life on her own terms - to leave the shadow of her overbearing mother and marry her childhood sweetheart once he returns from the Great War. But when her fiancé is lost at sea, this future is shattered. Looking for meaning again, she decides to perform for the troops in France.

Life on the front line is both rewarding and terrifying, and Cecily soon finds herself more involved - and more in danger - than she ever thought possible. And her family has followed her to France. Her sister, Merryn, has fallen for a young drummer whose charm hides a dark side, while their mother, Queenie - a faded star of the stage tormented by her own secret heartache - seems set on a path of self-destruction.

As the war draws to a close and their hopes turn once again to the future, Cecily and Merryn are more determined than ever to unravel the truth about their mother’s past: what has she been hiding from them - and why?

the supporting role of the sister was a little irritating. She was ridiculously naive and weak almost to the point that it was unbelievable.

Okay but.

this was my first time reading this author but it will definitely not be my last time. I I felt like I was walking with the characters in the room, in the battlefield Hospital and anywhere else if they were present. the narrator was excellent, you always knew who was speaking without having to second-guess the voice.

Great book
