The Poppy Wife: A Novel of the Great War by Caroline Scott

---

The mystery was engaging, I read to the end to find out what happened! I did find the time jumps back and forth to pull me out of the story sometimes. They were very clearly marked, but the flashbacks often chopped scenes up. I didn’t particularly connect with the characters, but that was just me. The content contained some language (soldier talk) and one suggestive scene.
