"A novel of love and loyalty across generations ... 1917. On a battlefield near the River Aisne John lies in the aftermath of a blast unable to move or feel his legs. Struggling to focus his thoughts he is lost to memory as the snow falls--a chance encounter in a pub by a railway a hot bath with his lover on a winter night. 1920. John has returned from war to North Yorkshire near a different river. He is alive but still not whole. Reunited with Helena an artist he reopens his photography business and tries to keep on living. But the past erupts insistently into the present as ghosts begin to surface in his pictures: ghosts with messages he cannot understand. So begins a narrative that spans four generations of connections and consequences that ignite and re-ignite as the century unfolds. In luminous moments of desire comprehension longing and transcendence the sparks fly upward working their transformations decades later"--
