If life is cheap, how much is love worth?
It's 1914 and young Rose Courtenay has a decision to make
. Please her wealthy parents by marrying the man of their choice - or play her part in the war effort?
The chance to escape proves irresistible and Rose becomes a nurse. Working in France, she meets Lieutenant Alex
Denham, a dark figure from her past. He's the last man in the world she'd get involved with - especially now he's married.
But in wartime nothing is as it seems. Alex's marriage is a sham and Rose is the only woman he's ever wanted. As he
recovers from his wounds, he sets out to win her trust. His gift of a silver locket is a far cry from the luxuries she's left behind.
What value will she put on his love?
Moving from rural Dorset to war-torn London and the horrors of the Western Front, The Silver Locket is
a compelling story about different kinds of courage and the enduring power of love.
