(2012)(The eighth book in the Cambridge Fellows Mysteries series)
A novel by Charlie Cochrane
"A sparkling, intelligent series, not to be missed" - The Historical Novel Society
The Great War is over. Freed from a prisoner of war camp and back at St. Bride's College, Orlando Coppersmith is discovering what those years have cost....
All he holds dear - including his beloved Jonty Stewart, lost in combat.
Then a commission to investigate a young officer's disappearance temporarily gives Orlando new direction... The deceptively simple case becomes a maze of conflicting stories - is Daniel McNeil a deserter, or a hero? - taking Orlando into the world of the shell-shocked and broken. And his sense of Jonty's absence becomes painfully acute. Especially when a brief spark of attraction for a Cambridge historian, instead of offering comfort, triggers overwhelming guilt.
As he hovers on the brink of despair, a chance encounter on the French seafront at Cabourg brings new hope and unexpected joy. But the crushing after-effects of war could destroy his second chance, leaving him more lost and alone than ever...
