Book Synopsis''A thoughtful and subtle historical romance with lots of brains and lots of heart.'' Kate Forsyth
1917, Italy. Rebecca Quinn is an unconventional woman.
At the height of World War I, she has given up the safety of her Sydney home for the bloody battlefields of Europe, following her journalist husband to the frontline as a war correspondent in Italy.
Reporting the horrors of the Italian campaign, Rebecca finds herself thrown together with American-born Italian photographer Alessandro Panucci, and soon discovers another battleground every bit as dangerous and unpredictable: the human heart.
