Three novels. One unforgettable journey through love, loss and courage.
Melina Druga's Where Poppies Grow brings together three sweeping novels that trace the emotional and human cost of the Great War through the eyes of those who lived it. From the battlefields of Europe to the quiet streets of wartime Canada, Echoes of the Great War Trilogy follows nurse Hettie Steward and her loved ones as they navigate chaos, heartbreak and hope.
Angel of Mercy ? Newlywed nurse Hettie Steward defies convention to join the Canadian Army Nursing Service. As war rages across Europe, she learns that courage takes many forms and that love can be both a burden and a balm.
Those Left Behind ? While Hettie serves overseas, her family fights its own battles on the home front. Letters carry both love and grief across the sea, and the family discovers that resilience and sacrifice are not confined to the battlefield.
Adjustment Year ?The guns have fallen silent, but peace brings its own trials. As Hettie and her husband return home, they must find the strength to rebuild their lives, and their hearts, in a changed world.
Where Poppies Grow is a deeply moving portrait of love, endurance, and the transformative power of hope. Rich with historical detail, heart, and authenticity, this complete collection reveals that even in war's darkest shadow, love endures.
