A novel that inspires courage! In early 19th-century England, many knew war only from the newspapers, unless one was a soldier: The young Major Edward Langley, son of the Duke of Lancashire, experiences his return home as the greatest trial of his life. As Napoleon was finally defeated, a marriage contract binds him to Isabell, the strong-willed daughter of the Earl of Bute, who firmly rejects all forms of warfare. Strong men? Only braggarts go to war - Isabell felt certain of it - defying God's commandment: Thou shalt not kill! But evil does not only lurk in war! As events unfold, Edward and Isabell are denied the comfort of convention. Both are called to make choices of their own, seeking peace of the heart that makes mere survival truly worth living. After years of war and upheaval across Europe, nothing can be taken for granted... This compelling narrative invites us to confront the questions of our own time through the mirror of the past. Three novels. Three soldiers and their families. A story of passion and our search for peace. This is the first.
