Summary

From the bestselling author of The Poppy Factory comes this moving novel that brings together a group of women in ways they could never have imagined.

July, 1919. At the Hotel de la Paix in the small village of Hoppestadt, three women arrive at the end of the war, searching for traces of the men they have loved and lost to the battlefields of Ypres in Belgium.

Ruby is just twenty-one, a shy Englishwoman looking for the grave of her husband. Alice is only a little older but brimming with confidence; she has travelled all the way from America, convinced her brother is in fact still alive. Then there’s Martha, and her son Otto, who are not all they seem to be . . .

The three women in Liz Trenow’s In Love and War may have very different backgrounds, but they are united in their search for reconciliation: to resolve themselves to what the war took from them, but also to what life might still promise for the future . . .

Very poignant.

Just finished listening to this great book on 11/112019. Very poignant reading, I felt I was sharing the characters journey with them. Wonderful author. I hope she keeps writing lots more books. Looking forward to listening to her next book. Thank you Liz.

Very disappointing

I can’t believe I was listening to the same story as other reviewers - it was so slow and nothing really happened. The idea was good and the narration was excellent but I kept waiting and waiting………and waiting.
