Winter Roses

ebook
By the summer of 1916, there is still no end to the war in sight and in the Sussex village of Ashden, as elsewhere, optimism has given way to stoicism. In the year that follows, bereavements and shortages take their toll on village life, and at the Rectory the four Lilley sisters each find their own way of contributing to the war effort, while their brother George joins the Royal Flying Corps. Gradually coming to terms with her broken engagement to Reginald Hunney, Caroline Lilley numbly continues with her agricultural work at home, until tragedy forces her into leaving Ashden. Unexpectedly plunged into the fascinating and often frustrating world of military intelligence, she also finds her personal life re-emerging when she renews her contact with the enigmatic Belgian liaison officer Yves Rosier. But how can she tell if this new relationship is right — and will the war give them the chance to find out?
