Song of Songs

A brilliant, deeply-moving saga of one woman’s search for love and hope in the shadow of the Great War

Lady Helena Girvan was born into privilege: the daughter of a wealthy landowner, she was assured a life of safety and comfort. Until the war descends and ruins everything.

Volunteering as an auxiliary nurse in London’s gritty East End, Helena quickly loses her naivety, and her illusions. But she has something even more terrifying in store – not only the bloody battlefields of France but deep fears about the safety of the men she loves: her friends, her brothers and her husband.

Little does Helena know, however, the war will live on in the form of a man she slowly comes to love with an irresistible sensuality, despite their many differences.

This epic and passionate story speaks for a whole generation and continues to speak vividly to us today. Available digitally for the first time, Song of Songs is a heartbreaking modern classic set in the time and milieu of Downton Abbey. Beloved by reading groups and book clubs, and sure to appeal to readers of Diney Costeloe and Gone With The Wind, it is the first of five extraordinary Beverley Hughesdon novels to be released as ebooks in 2016.
