Description

Decades ago, as Nazi planes dominated the British sky, eighteen-year-old Lily Verner made a terrible mistake. She’s tried for decades to forget, but now an unexpected event pulls her back to the 1940s British countryside. She finds herself remembering the brilliant, lustrous colors of the silk she helped to weave at her family’s mill, the relentless pressure of the worsening war, and the kind of heartbreaking loss that stops time.

Advance Praise

"The Last Telegram is a delightful read. This absorbing novel delves into the secrets of wartime silk production and makes them totally fascinating. Trenow weaves a poignant love story with a fresh and compelling touch, set against an exciting and vivid background that raises serious moral questions that should not be swept under the carpet of history. Tremendously atmospheric and convincing in its details, with characters that touch the heart. A book to savour." - Kate Furnivall, author of The Russian Concubine
