‘M.K. Tod brings WWI France to vivid life in Lies Told In Silence. We come to care about her characters, whose secure, sheltered lives will never be the same. This is a novel that dramatically depicts the horror and heartbreak of war, while also celebrating the resilience of the human spirit.’ – Sharon Kay Penman
In May 1914, Helene Noisette’s father believes war is imminent. Convinced Germany will head straight for Paris, he sends his family to Beaufort, a village in northern France. When war erupts, the German army invades neutral Belgium and within weeks Beaufort is less than twenty miles from the front. During the years that follow, Helene, along with her mother and grandmother come together to cope with deprivation, fear and the dreadful effects of war. In 1917 she meets Edward Jamieson, a young soldier. But war has a way of separating lovers, of twisting promises and dashing hopes and Helene is forced to reconcile dreams for the future with harsh reality.
Looking forward to seeing who the winners are!
