Her life was shaped by a war. Her granddaughter's will be changed by the truth.
1943. Peggy Ellis's quiet life in the village pub is about to be shattered. New American airmen are arriving at the nearby base every day, and the skies are filled with thunder as ever increasing numbers of bombers roar overhead. But when local resentments at the so-called 'friendly invasion' erupt into violence, Peggy finds herself in the unexpected company of American gunner Zack Eldon.

As long held secrets come slowly to light, Georgia begins to question the choices she has made in her own life. Drawn back to her grandmother's village, she takes a job in the pub where destinies intertwined decades before. There, among heirloom recipes and a long forgotten history, she learns that it's never too late to follow your dreams.
An unforgettable and heart-wrenching dual timeline novel, When the Light Still Shone is perfect for fans of Kelly Rimmer, Kristin Harmel, and Marion Kummerow.
