The Soldier's Wife by Margaret Leroy

Guest Review by Judy C. (Thanks & glad I found one you liked)
5 *****

The Soldier’s Wife is a well-crafted story set on the island of Guernsey during the German occupation of WWII. Vivienne struggles to deal with the hardships of war while raising her daughters and tending to her increasingly senile mother-in-law.  I was intrigued and engaged after the first pages. The characters were well drawn and the plot moved at a good pace.
