We Fought For Ardnish
Published by Birlinn Limited
When a Scottish soldier finds love in the midst of war, he will go to any length not to lose it in this WWII epic by the acclaimed author of Ardnish.
Like his father before him, Donald Angus Gillies is leaving the small highland village of Ardnish to go to war against a distant enemy. Joining the British Army’s Lavat Scouts, he
is sent on a mission to the Alps, where he soon meets the beautiful Francoise, a French-Canadian agent of the Special Operations Executive. The pair immediately form a close bond, but when Francoise is captured, Donald Angus realizes how strong his feelings for her truly are.
His desperate attempts to find her prove fruitless. But a posting to Canada leads to some remarkable news, not only about Francoise, but about his own family. Reunited once more, Donald Angus and Francoise plan to live together in his beloved Ardnish, but have one further mission to complete first – a mission more dangerous than anything they have ever faced before . . .
