'The world has been waiting for a worthy successor to Sebastian
Faulks' Birdsong - now Philip Gray has delivered it' David Young,
author of Stasi Child THE GUNS ARE SILENT. THE DEAD ARE NOT. 1919.
On the desolate battlefields of northern France, the guns of the
Great War are silent. Special battalions now face the dangerous
task of gathering up the dead for mass burial. Captain Mackenzie, a
survivor of the war, cannot yet bring himself to go home. First he
must see that his fallen comrades are recovered and laid to rest.
His task is upended when a gruesome discovery is made beneath the
ruins of a German strongpoint. Amy Vanneck's fiancé is one soldier
lost amongst many, but she cannot accept that his body may never be
found. She heads to France, determined to discover what became of
the man she loved. It soon becomes clear that what Mackenzie has
uncovered is a war crime of inhuman savagery. As the dark truth
leaches out, both he and Amy are drawn into the hunt for a
psychopath, one for whom the atrocity at Two Storm Wood is not an
end, but a beginning. ___________________ Praise for Two Storm
Wood: 'Atmospheric and meticulously researched, Two Storm Wood
sheds light on the horrors and the trauma that continued even after
the Armistice...a novel that informs while keeping you on the edge
of your seat' Abir Mukherjee, author of The Shadows of Men 'Gray
succeeds in entwining two powerful tales - a love story and a hate
story - in a way that, right from the shocking start, is both
convincing and enthralling' Virginia Baily, author of Sunday Times
bestseller Early One Morning 'One of the most evocative thrillers
I've ever read...Haunting, cinematic, and utterly gripping' D.B.
