Description

The Tin Nose Shop is a powerful and moving novel inspired by one of the last great untold stories of WW1. In 1916, young artist Sam Burke is spared death by firing squad and brought to a remote castle by the Irish Sea. There, he is tasked with creating intricate masks to hide the mutilated faces of his fellow soldiers from the Front. As Sam struggles to come to terms with the death of his best friend and the promise he failed to keep, he and the disfigured soldiers must find a way to return to their former lives and loved ones. This beautifully written and sensitively observed novel explores the healing powers of friendship, love, hope and purpose in the face of unimaginable loss.
