The Soldier's Wife
by Margaret Leroy
A novel full of grand passion and intensity, The
Soldier's Wife asks "What would you do for your family?" "What
should you do for a stranger?" and "What would you do for love?"
As World War II draws closer and closer to
Guernsey, Vivienne de la Mare knows that there will be sacrifices to be made.
Not just for herself, but for her two young daughters and for her
mother-in-law, for whom she cares while her husband is away fighting. What she
does not expect is that she will fall in love with one of the enigmatic German
soldiers who take up residence in the house next door to her home. As their
relationship intensifies, so do the pressures on Vivienne. Food and resources
grow scant, and the restrictions placed upon the residents of the island grow
with each passing week. Though Vivienne knows the perils of her love affair
with Gunther, she believes that she can keep their relationship and her family
safe. But when she becomes aware of the full brutality of the Occupation, she
must decide if she is willing to risk her personal happiness for the life of a
stranger.
