This fantastic and original book is based on the real-life story of a soldier. This book came about because the author saw a newspaper article about an extraordinary man, Rob French, in 2017. Rob was a former Royal Marine who had a large tattoo of seven large poppies on his back. The poppies represented seven of Rob’s colleagues who died within weeks of each other in Afghanistan in December 2008. This book is not about Rob. He did not want the attention, or the book to be about him. This fictional tale perfectly tells a story, however, and what a beautiful story it is. I could not put this book down.
An achingly authentic and raw portrait of love, regret, and healing. This unforgettable journey of resilience and redemption will capture your heart and soul.
