    About this ebook

    In the summer of 1916, on the fields of Northern France, Michael Edwards, a young British soldier in his teens, becomes separated from his unit on the eve of battle. After walking about for hours in the rain and dark, he spies a farmhouse and asks for directions. The occupant of the farmhouse is a beautiful widow who takes pity on the lost and frightened young boy and takes him into her house. Unable to bear the thought of sending him away to battle while still a virgin, the lady sets about to make a man of him. The resultant night of erotic passion will not only be Michael's passage into manhood but will have consequences not only in this conflict but the next as well.

    Set across two World Wars, Miss Francis' erotic story on the battlefields of Northern Europe is a searing and heart rending tale of sexuality and compassion, triumphant over the horror of war.
