The end of World War II is near, but for nineteen-year-old bomber pilot Henry Forester, the battle continues. Shot down behind enemy lines in France, Henry survived a dangerous trek to freedom. But after returning home to Virginia, he is still reliving the war in his head. Most of all, Henry can’t stop worrying about the safety of a young French boy, Pierre, who may have lost everything because of Henry. Amid the aftermath of war, Henry goes back to France for a final mission: to search for a lost boy and to reclaim his own internal peace. L. M. Elliott’s sequel to the acclaimed novel Under a War-Torn Sky delivers a moving portrait of the repercussions of war and one young man’s courageous journey.
