I am reading this book as part of a TLC Tour. It's a mystery set during WWI and I love both of those things so it should be a good one!

"I stopped just outside the ward and leaned my head against the cool wood of the doorframe. I couldn't remember when last I'd slept, or for that matter, eaten anything more than a few biscuits now and again with a hasty cup of tea."

This book also works for the War through the Generations: WWI challenge.
