Vividly evocative and steeped in history\u2026 A rousing character-driven tale.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Set against the backdrop of WWI, Schroller\u2019s debut historical novel is a compelling story about a couple\u2019s journey of love, loss, regrets, and redemption. It\u2019s been two decades since Joe Parker has left WWI’s battlefields. And though Joe thinks otherwise, the trauma of his past still weighs heavy on his psyche. A visit to Villers-Bretonneux, the location of Joe\u2019s most brutal battle, uncovers old secrets, unraveling Joe\u2019s relationship with his wife Sophie. Although the novel gets off to a slow start, once Joe and Sophie begin their trip, the stakes get higher, as does the suspense of the story. There are touching descriptions of what soldiers fighting at the front go through as trauma of the war takes over their guilt-ridden psyche. The expert prose traces Joe and Sophie\u2019s hopes, joys, griefs, conflicts, and inner turmoil with understanding and compassion. Readers will be left impressed with Schroller\u2019s control over her historical atmosphere as well as her multilayered, intriguing characterizations. An engaging, poignant tale from an author to watch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
