Summary

The USA Today and Globe & Mail Canadian bestseller is back with a brand new gripping and heartfelt historical novel! 
Absence makes the heart grow fonder, but does nothing to heal the pain of spending every minute waiting to hear the worst… 
As the Second World War rages on, nurse Kitty Pattison’s life takes a nomadic turn as her work with the Red Cross sees her traversing the country, moving from post to post. 
With her best friends Jo and Trixie also scattered across the UK, and her soldier sweetheart Michael off on the continent undertaking medical missions he can’t discuss, the war takes its toll and long days are followed by sleepless nights interrupted only by nightmares of what she’s seen on the wards. 
Now, Kitty’s hopes rise and fall with the arrival of the post – the only thing that keeps her connected to her aunt and uncle, her dear friends, and her Michael – and every moment spent with those she loves is held dear, because each one could be the last… 
The Orphan's Letters is a top fiction novel that takes readers on a journey through the 20th century, a time of war and upheaval. The military setting serves as a stark contrast to the romance between Kitty and Michael, creating a saga that is as heart-wrenching as it is inspiring. 
For fans of Rosie Goodwin (The Winter Promise), Vicki Beeby (The Ops Room Girls), Katie Flynn (First Love, Last Love), Jean Fullerton (A Ration Book Daughter), and Libby Ashworth (The Cotton Spinner).
