About this ebook

Children of Dieppe is a novel by Canadian author Joanne Madden. It is the coming-of-age story of Denise Nair, whose father, Jim Nair, died in the tragic raid on the French port of Dieppe in 1942. The repercussions of that raid are life-changing for Denise's family, friends and acquaintances. They are forced to come to terms with Jim's past on the Isle of Wight, where he trained for the Dieppe invasion. Denise is determined to uncover what happened there. Along the way, she must deal with her best friend Rosemary Tillis' infatuation with hockey goaltender Mark Steeles, with whom she is also attracted. Denise's friendship with the troubled Rosemary is chronicled in the novel, as well as her encounters with the mysterious Gordon Sloane, a childhood friend of her father. CHILDREN OF DIEPPE is a sweeping drama that spans a time period from World War II until the 21st century.
