Crime & Suspense

A World War II nurse finds herself in a hospital bed with no memory of how she got there in this dramatic historical novel by the author of The Train.

1947. Ella Elkington wakes up in hospital with minor physical injuries but no memory. She cannot even remember her own name.

The doctor treating her tells her that she had a car accident and has been identified by a letter found in a handbag. Asking to see the letter, hoping to find out about herself, she learns the letter is now missing.

When the hospital tracks down her brother, he visits her, and Ella has glimmers of childhood memories.

After she is released from hospital, with the help of diaries and letters, and her long-time friend Sheila, Ella begins to piece together her past. She learns she was a nurse during the war, who was sent to work in a mobile hospital in France after the D-Day landings. But, haunted by nightmares, Ella struggles to understand how she ended up in the accident—as well as what happened to that letter and the man in her dreams.

In order to understand who she is, Ella must face a terrible truth in order to make peace with the past and find a way to live again . . .

Ella’s War is a captivating historical drama that will appeal to fans of authors like Lucinda Riley and Victoria Hislop.
