Summary

As the fragile negotiations of the international Peace Conference get underway, typist Stella Rutherford throws herself into her work and the mixture of glamour and devastation the City of Light reveals.

Anything to escape the grief coming in waves for her beloved brother Jack. Her sister Corran is about to put her academic career to use among the troops in France, a chance to see what the experience was like for countless men, including her fiancé Rob.

Rob Campbell, profoundly changed by his time as a surgeon on the front line, has had little chance to lift his head from the incessant grind of the injured, dying and dead. If he did the ghosts of his teammates, the Scottish rugby players who followed the same path into hell, would surely be waiting for him.

I thought this was probably a realistic depiction of the emotions people suffered during and after the First World War. The descriptions of the horrors people experienced were graphic but not over dramatised. All the relationships were easy to relate to and there was no gratuitous sex which was a bonus in my opinion! This was the most moving book I have read for a good while. I thought it was very well written and very well narrated and I would highly recommend it.

Very moving

It’s a great story ,but the narration is abysmal , the different accents she attempts are a weird collection of awful nasal tones , her natural voice is difficult enough to listen to but I eventually and reluctantly had to abandon listening to the book

Dreadful narration
