Concerto
By Elizabeth Darrell
1941. The British colony of Hong Kong thinks it is immune from the chaos engulfing the rest of the world. Amid so much suffering, the talented pianist Sarah Channing, fresh from war-ravaged England, is disgusted by the shallow concerns of her father’s social set. In Hong kong Channing will meet both Rod Durman, an Australian doctor and Alex Tennant a notorious playboy and all three lives will become irreversibly intertwined.
But when the Japanese army takes Hong Kong by surprise all personal happiness must be put aside in order to survive.
Elizabeth Darrell’s richly evocative tale of love and the realities of war sweeps from the fall of Hong Kong to the London Blitz and the D-Day landings. What kind of love can survive the chaos and anguish of war?
