A story of love and loss in wartime from master storyteller Susan Hill.

But there is David Barton. As yet untouched and unsullied by war, fresh-faced and radiating charm.

But as the reality of the violence sets in, the men know that they will soon be separated...
A poignant novel on human love as war and the pity of war.
