Nearly seven years after the Great War ended, Britain is beginning to return to normal. But the long shadow cast by the conflict still lingers over the country.
Clara O’Harris knows the trauma the war left behind. She sees it every day at the home for ex-servicemen her husband runs. The men who come to the home are mentally scarred, unable to function in regular daily life after what they endured.
Clara’s best efforts to help the men are not always enough, but she will never stop trying, nor hoping, that one day they can return to a normal life.
Yet, not far from the home, lurks a group of traitors who care nothing for the suffering of others, and would do anything to throw the country into turmoil again.
Clara is about to find her fate intertwined with theirs in a way she could never have imagined, as she fights to spare future generations of young men from dying on the whim of madmen.
But can a war truly be prevented, or is it already too late for the future of the country?
