Review:

“A wonderful story.” ―Rosamunde Pilcher, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Shell Seekers

“Grey's engaging, poignant, and romantic debut treats readers to an absorbing story within a story. Her detailed narrative chronicles the lives of these intriguing characters while fluidly travelling from past to present. The author's subtle depictions to social and moral intolerances of the past and the gentle hand of fate that guides this tale makes her novel an excellent choice for fans of Beatrice Williams (Overseas; A Hundred Summers), Jon Clinch (The Thief of Auschwitz), and Kristina McMorris (Bridge of Scarlet Leaves).” ―Library Journal, starred review

“Letters to the Lost is a powerful debut, one of those rare books that grabs you from the first page and doesn't let go. It's a heart-wrenching, smile-through-the-tears story of love lost and refound - you won't be able to put it down!” ―Lauren Willig, New York Times bestselling author of The Ashford Affair

“Letters to the Lost pulsates with life, offering a vibrant love story that transcends time and the heartbreak of war. Settle in somewhere comfortable; you are in for an enthralling read.” ―Kate Alcott, New York Times bestselling author of The Dressmaker and A Touch of Stardust

“A captivating tale of love and love lost.” ―Booklist

“A beautiful, tender story from a naturally gifted storyteller. A wonderful debut!
” ―Lucinda Riley, international bestselling author of The Seven Sisters

“An epic story of love and loss that will break your heart.” ―Santa Montefiore, international bestselling author of The Beekeeper’s Daughter

“Sweeps you up into the lives of its characters and makes you hope that sometimes lost loves can be found.” ―Kate Lord Brown, international bestselling author of The Perfume Garden

“A wonderful, double-woven story of two women who must bear the unfair weight of past wounds and who yet tenaciously hold onto the resolve to never give up on love. Iona Grey's engaging prose is resonant and lyrical; a delicious and moving read from page one to the last.” ―Susan Meissner, author of Secrets of a Charmed Life
