About this book
In an alternate World War II, Rio Richlin an ordinary young woman serving in the American army finds herself and her squad lost in the fog on a training exercise in Wales. Cold, wet, and far from base, they take shelter in an old pub on Christmas Eve, where three veteran soldiers recount their own wartime experiences. The story combines the tension of being cut off in hostile territory with the reflections of soldiers who have already seen combat, highlighting Rio's resolve to lead her team through danger and uncertainty.
