Description

Lest we forget... A poignant tale of love and loss. In 2003, Selma Dixon is the last link to the hidden truth behind her village's refusal to honour its war dead. Her life was forever changed when her sweetheart Guy was badly wounded in World War I, and her brother was sent to fight in his place. The consequences of that fateful decision are still felt today. Forced to start a new life in America, Selma is unaware of why her family's name is now mud. But the past soon catches up with her, and the names of the dead must be spoken once more. A powerful story of love, loss, and the enduring power of memory. This heart-wrenching tale explores the devastating effects of war on individuals and communities. With its poignant portrayal of a family's struggles and sacrifices, it is a worthwhile read for anyone interested in historical fiction or stories of love and loss.
