Just the Memory of Love (Tides of Empire) - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

From the quiet Dorset countryside in 1937 to the untamed wilds of Zambia, Just the Memory of Love traces a family bound to the land they inherit… and to the tides of history they cannot control.

William Langton grows up at Langton Manor, the youngest son of a country estate, overshadowed by his siblings and uncertain of his place in the world. His closest companion is Hilary Bains, a spirited evacuee whose friendship becomes a steadfast anchor as war, social change, and the decline of the gentry reshape their lives.

Together, Will and Hilary navigate the shifting landscapes of Dorset and Africa, witnessing the end of empire, the turbulence of decolonisation, and the cost of ambition and loyalty. Family, friends, and ideals are tested, and the old world slowly yields to a new one.

And as memory and loss gather like shadows, one question lingers: can the bonds of childhood friendship endure the tides of history, or are some ties only preserved in memory?

Across continents, across generations, the tides of empire shape all they touch.
