| Publisher Description: The Great War will change London forever, and the lives of the Bannister girls with it, but will war bring them closer together? Or end up tearing them apart? Louise, Ellen, and Angel Bannister have enjoyed the comforts of a well-to-do upbringing, but yearn for something more thrilling than their expected lots in life. As the war rumbles through London, bringing with it social upheaval and unprecedented opportunity, the three sisters face challenges that will test their resolve and strip them of their innocence. This is a poignant tale of women facing desire, loss, and fervent love in a war-torn country. |
