The Oceans Between Us by Gill Thompson is a heart-wrenching debut novel inspired by real events. A mother's desperate search for her son and a child's fight for survival are intertwined in this riveting story.
A woman is found injured in London after an air raid, with no memory of who she is or what she has lost. Meanwhile, a young boy waits anxiously in an orphanage, hoping his mother will return.

The novel explores the strength of the human spirit and the enduring power of love as two families navigate their pasts and their futures. With its moving portrayal of loss, hope, and resilience, The Oceans Between Us is a powerful and moving read.
