Fiona –
The Letters is a very intriguing and gripping story. Written in such an interesting way.
I loved it.
The ending was not what I expected, as it is just the beginning of another adventure that is yet to be written. 🌻🍒⚘️
Julie Didlick (Australia) –
When you read a book by Vicki Bennett you know you are going to learn something you did not know before.
And so it is with ‘The Letters’. As Ruby finds out more about her grandfather she is compelled to right a wrong.
Ruby is flung out into the first World War where she sees her grandfather as a young soldier.
Her meeting with Henri has many avenues to retrace together. You can smell the world of war as you read this book.
The ending of this story is just how it should be. Vicki Bennett is one of those authors where not a word is wasted.
And she brings to the fore history we did not know before but should have.
