A Light in the Darkness
A Light in the Darkness 
When Teddy Bowman stumbles across his grandfather’s long-lost war diaries, he uncovers an astonishing family history. George Bowman, cast out by his family as a conscientious objector, and hurled into the turmoil and chaos of the Somme in 1916, is the most unlikely of heroes. A gentle, peace loving young man, he is suddenly confronted with the stark realities of the Great War as a stretcher-bearer in the Royal Army Medical Corps. His extraordinary bravery on the frontline knows no bounds, and he returns, battered and bruised, as one of the most decorated men in his regiment’s history. It is while in convalescence in France that he meets his future wife Amelia. Her world of refined elegance and culture is far removed from George’s humble East End beginnings, and the battle now to be fought is one across the great class divide. A love affair ensues, and endures against all the odds.
