'DEEPLY MOVING, THIS IS AN UNUSUAL AND HIGHLY READABLE NOVEL' (Yorkshire Post)
When Rebecca Sheldon married George Ludbury, she found herself at war with his snobbish, possessive and malicious family as well as with the hypocrisy of the Edwardian society in which she lived.
This novel explores the insularity of country people in the English midlands between the years 1888 and 1923 and vividly captures the patriotic fervour on the Home Front during the first world war. Above all though, we follow Rebecca who, with grace and good humour, is fighting her own private battles, her own quiet war.
