As the war rages on and the world around her changes, Valentine must navigate her own shifting allegiances and values.Richards' writing is both lyrical and precise, capturing the nuances of the characters' emotions and the historical context of the time period. The novel is a masterful exploration of love and politics, set against the backdrop of one of the most tumultuous periods in modern history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
