In the first part of the Message from Joshua series, a young Ralph Harington falls madly in love with his music-loving sweetheart, Annie Spencer – but the gathering storm clouds of war loom heavy in 1939 as our story moves from the playing fields of Cheltenham to war torn Burma. What is the significance of the gift that Ralph takes to war? Can he survive to make it home and if he does, what of his beautiful Annie? At key moments, to the strains of some of the most poignant music ever written, the characters take the reader through their emotional roller coaster of tragedy and tears, passion and romance and a suspense that is only broken some fifty years later. In this powerful and heartrending romance, family drama and wartime machinations in Whitehall are set against a thought provoking religious and historical backdrop. Not since 'The French Lieutenant's Woman' has the Cobb at Lyme Regis been the scene of such heartrending romance. This is a love story cast in heaven and set in stone… or will it be torn asunder when the war hits? After the growing tensions of Part One make sure you read Part Two as the drama and action reaches its poignant climax.
