The Ann's War series touches on the emotional effects the war had on people. It was more than the atrocities; it was the feelings of loneliness that separation from loved ones caused. Would women ever see their men again? If so, would the men be the same people they were before the war?
Ann discovers this is true about her own life as she investigates the murder of a young woman. Detective Max Deveraux says about her: “You always manage to see things from someone else’s point of view.” This is true because Ann often finds herself dealing with the same problems as those people she investigates. As with all of Hannah Howe's novels, this story delves into the human psyche, the things we do for love or hate are universal. This makes the characters alive and believable.
And you're in for a surprise ending.... What will the future hold for Ann? Will the war have turned her world upside down?
