Twelve Miles from Liverpool - Paperback

by Jean Ford (Author)

After unbearable losses, unresolved griefs, mistakes made, and at the lowest point in her life, the author returns home to Widnes and receives an invitation from a baroness to go with her to Armenia and a war. Extraordinary events and encounters, signals and messages, set her on a life-changing path. She experiences flashbacks to World War II, the miracle of Dunkirk, and in Dover, glimpses of the channel ghosts. She tells the story in a clear new voice with a lyrical quality throughout, compelling us to turn every page, making us want to believe again. An epilogue includes the Beatles.

"Walk on, walk on with hope in your heart

and you'll never walk alone." Lyrics by Oscar Hammerstein 1945
