From the pyramids of Cairo to the cliffs of Cornwall, a sweeping, heart-wrenching tale of war, sacrifice and second chances from bestselling author Lorna Cook.
Cornwall, present day. When Australian Tilly Hobbs arrives at Trelenna House, she’s not expecting much, just a job in the café and a chance to live somewhere new. But when she’s tasked with piecing together torn and burnt documents hidden in the family archives with reclusive widower Merry, she finds an unexpected love story lost for a century emerging from the fragments.
Cairo, 1915. When Jessie Knight, a courageous Australian nurse, meets Captain Arlo Trelenna at a hospital in the shadow of the Great Pyramids, he’s just another man broken by war. But as the horrors of war follow them from Egypt to the battlefields of France, their bond becomes the one thing neither can afford — and neither can resist. Until a devastating revelation tests their love to breaking point.
As Jessie and Arlo’s past comes to life, Tilly and Merry must ask themselves: can a love story written in the ruins of war show them how to rebuild their own lives?
