[Shkarkoni] Mobi Fallen Skies: A Novel

By Philippa Gregory

Lily Valance wants to forget the war. She's determined to enjoy the world of the

1920s, with its music, singing, laughter and pleasure. When she meets Captain

Stephen Winters, a decorated hero, back from the Front, she's drawn to his wealth

and status. In Lily he sees his salvation - from the past from the nightmares, from the

guilt at surviving the Flanders plains where so many were lost. But it's a dream that

cannot last. Lily has no intention of leaving her singing career. The hidden tensions

behind the respectable facade of the Winters household come to a head. Stephen's

nightmares merge ever closer with reality and the truth of what took place in the

mud and darkness brings him and all who love him to a terrible reckoning...
