Publisher's Synopsis
Three people from one family; three separate lives touching or colliding, during events that took place in 1993. The father (Jack) writes his memoirs, relating his experiences as a young man during World War Two and his army escapades across Europe. He talks of meeting his future wife; like many young people of that time, they faced an uncertain future and the possibility that his wife would be an early widow. Their son (Douglas) and Douglas's wife (Naomi) face their own private trauma decades later, in the battle save the life of their unborn child. Their daughter (Jennie) faces her doubts when her world is upended by an unexpected liaison with a married man. Is he telling her the truth, or leading her on?Three ordinary lives bound or broken by the ties of family relationships.
