Media Reviews
A lovely book which deals with a challenging subject sympathetically ... buy it and enjoy. Army Rumour Service It's a book with dark undercurrents, and storytelling that makes it fast and compelling. Annie Brown, Daily Record 'It's a beautiful, sad and urgent book about modern-day Britain, about what war does to people, about hope and hopelessness, about love and acceptance, and about learning to let go.' --Book Trust
