First novel from a talented writer with a unique setting the hospital of a UK POW camp. WWII is a perennial favourite for readers: from the romantic saga to the literary novel. Mary is a nurse at a Lancashire prison camp for the housing and treatment of German POWs. Life at work is difficult but fulfilling; life at home a constant round of arguments between her mother, two brothers and father, often prompted by her fly-by-night sister, Ellen, the apple of her irascible fathers eye. Then Frank appears a guard at the camp, hes been watching Mary for weeks and hangs around until she agrees to walk out with him. But Frank is a difficult man to love and its not long before Mary gives him his marching orders. Matters come to a head when Frank puts two and two together and realises that Mary is about to embark on an affair with one of the camps German doctors. Frank wont take no for an answer and the gossips are eager for their next victim (having already seen off Marys Conchie elder brother and pregnant sister). Now, not only Marys happiness but her life is threatened by this most dangerous of secrets ..., "Judith Barrow has not written an ordinary romance but a book that deals with important issues which are still relevant today . . . an excellent debut novel and one I thoroughly enjoyed reading."

This item didn’t come in exactly as pictured, but the seller responded immediately and was very gracious in offering me a partial refund even bough I wasn’t expecting one for what I paid for the item. I have bought from this seller before, and they are reputable and stand behind the products they sell. My other transactions with them have been perfect. Great communication. Packaging and price were good. Fairly fast shipping, too. Thanks.

This item came in exactly as pictured, and the seller posted immediately and was very gracious. I didn't ask for a partial refund. Why would I? I bought what I was expecting and received what I paid for the item. Not sure if I have bought from this seller before, but they are reputable and stand behind the products they sell. My future transactions with them will no doubt be perfect. Great communication. Packaging and price were good. Fairly fast shipping, too. Thanks.
