Churchill has made his speech about it being, perhaps, the end of the beginning and Frank and Alice have great plans for the peace that cannot now be long delayed. Frank will be free to leave the sea and together they can buy the small hotel that has become their dream but, not yet.\u003cp\u003eEurope is still occupied by the German army and England is full to bursting with young, fit Allied soldiers. The invasion must come soon but, for many tired, frightened and frustrated wives and sweethearts denied the comfort of their loved ones for so long, the temptation is irresistible.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHeartbroken by reports of Alice's infidelity, and as a way to escape from a rapidly re-darkening Europe over which the clouds of a new war are already gathering, Frank emigrates in search of a new life in a new land.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn Canada Frank meets Loretta whose experience of a war-time marriage has been as unhappy as his own. Success, promotion and a promising future in public relations look certain but, when Loretta is murdered by her estranged husband, Frank realises that his new life has been just a desperate attempt to obliterate the past. Losing Loretta determines him to recapture Alice and their dream.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Clive Hopkins\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1800315759\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781800315754\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e New Generation Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/13\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 400\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.95lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.00h x 5.00w x 0.89d","brand":"Clive Hopkins","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48486139920639,"sku":"9781800315754","price":19.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_ae18438a-607b-431c-b30b-961feb1cc2a9.jpg?v=1778053941","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/to-recapture-the-dream-clive-hopkins-9781800315754","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
