A Story of Rebuilding
Mistmorgan’s latest release, These Long Shadows, takes readers to London in 1945 – after the war in Europe has ended – offering readers a chance to explore the realities of living with the aftermath of such a brutal conflict.
Two years before, we meet Jonty Ables when he proposes to Katie Baines for the sake of her unborn baby. Now Jonty is back from the war, ready to do whatever it takes to be a good husband for his wife, but Katie isn’t sure her heart has room for him. With personal experience lending authenticity, Mistmorgan weaves a moving story of betrayal, loss, and grief slowly climbing its way to hope and new life. With sweet romance, a deep current of faith, and a touch of intrigue with a missing person case, these characters – and readers – are in for the journey of a lifetime.
