A fan letter from scholar David Graham in far-away America to poet Elspeth Dunn on the Scottish Isle of Skye sparks a romance interrupted by WWI. Fast-forward to WWII and Margaret, Elspeth’s daughter, has fallen in love with a pilot in the Royal Air Force but can’t understand why her mother warns against wartime romance. When Elspeth disappears after an air raid, Margaret discovers the letters she and David exchanged—one which might hold a clue to her whereabouts. Told in letters, Kirkus Reviews says, “By turns lyrical and flirtatious, Brockmole’s debut charms with its wistful evocation of a time when handwritten, eagerly awaited letters could bespell besotted lovers.” $1.99 on Kindle.
