Synopsis
A New York Times Bestselling Author
Mead parachuted into Normandy on D-Day and fought his way to Germany through some of the most brutal violence of World War II. But his most difficult battle was lost years later, when his beloved wife, Sophie, succumbed to cancer. Since then, he has waged a private war against both loneliness and the memory of a day in 1945 that went horribly wrong - and has haunted him ever since.
