Publisher's summary

From the bustling streets of post-Great War London to the idyllic 1920s Sussex countryside, this is a breathtaking story of passion and persistence from a phenomenal Australian storyteller about how true love can overcome incredible odds, even in the most extraordinary circumstances.

A humble soldier, known only as "Jones", wakes in hospital with no recollection of his past. The few fleeting fragments of memory he glimpses are horrifying moments from the battlefield at Ypres. His very identity becomes a puzzle he must solve. Then Eden Valentine comes gliding into his world, a stunning seamstress who has a dream of her own business in high fashion but duty to her family may never permit her to fulfil it while her fiancé resents the intrusion of the disarming Jones in such desperate need of her help to unravel his past.

Surrounding the mystery is Alex Wynter, the influential heir to the Wynter industrial empire and country manor Larksfell Hall. With his aristocratic family still reeling from a recent tragedy, he brings news that will further rock the foundations of their privileged lives.

When their three very different worlds collide, the pieces of the past finally fall into place and lead them into wildly unexpected futures. What they discover will bring shattering consequences that threaten to tear apart far more than just the heart of the tailor's girl.

Fantastic story and great narrator!

I absolutely loved this book and just couldn't put it down. The story opens at the end of WWII in a London hospital for injured servIcemen where preparations are underway to celebrate "peace in our time". However, one of the patients, who has recovered from his physical injuries, is struggling with amnesia. And so begins his story which has so many twists and turns. ...

Random Harvest revisited

Similar to the plot of Random Harvest but with a more feminist perspective. Still enjoyable. The 1941 James Hilton novel is very different from the movie with Greer Garson but both are good.
