Description

Amid the falling shells of Flanders Field, a nurse embarks on a haunting quest to find her brother, presumed lost in the trenches. But set amongst eerie and haunting settings, magic and mystery fills the air, and all is not as it seems in the gripping historical Sunday Times Bestselling novel.

January 1918: Laura Iven, a Canadian nurse, returns home from the war, only to receive devastating news – her brother Freddie is dead. But something doesn’t quite make sense. Determined to uncover the truth, Laura heads back to Belgium, volunteering at a private hospital. There, she encounters the eerie whispers of ghosts who dance around a mysterious innkeeper who offers soldiers a blissful escape. Could this be Freddie’s path – and if so, where is he?

November 1917: Freddie Iven wakes after an explosion to find himself trapped with a wounded German soldier. Against all the odds, they form a bond and claw their way to an escape. But in the chaos of No Man’s Land, neither know where to turn to avoid persecution. Amidst the atrocity, they encounter a fiddler with the power to make their hellscape vanish – but at what price?

With the power to both warm and break your heart, The Warm Hands of Ghosts is a breathtaking and spellbinding tale of love, survival, and the supernatural.
