Love Under Fire

About the Book

It is September 1939, New Zealand. In the death traps of the past winter and in the midst of the impending war in Europe, two loved ones gather for old time’s sake before they will leave separately for the war in Europe. Kevin Welsh, an infantryman (soldier), and Helen Townsend, a medical Sister of Tekapo, discovered the wonder of their love the night before the young man should report for joining the war.
