AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'After a decade under siege - a city has finally fallen. But ten years of fury have taken their toll. For an officer returning from this epic campaign, it is time to put the horrors of war behind him, and take back his place at the family table. For the officer's wife, it is time to begin again.

'The future is set. The real battle for hearts and minds must start now.'
