There are shadows in the trenches of the Great War.  Platoon Sergeant Matthew Petticrew arrived there with a shadowed past himself, but the reality of battles bring new wounds carving within him a longing for light, and a resolve to fight for it.

One night not only Matthew but his Comrades as well are enraptured by a sound so pure, a voice so ethereal, it offers reprieve even if only for a moment.   As rumors sweep the trenches they learn that others had heard it too.   The Angel of Argonne," they call the voice: a mysterious presence who leaves behind wreaths on unmarked graves. 

Mireilles who was raised in the wild depths of the Forest of Argonne, finds her reclusive world rocked when war crashes into her idyllic home, taking much from her.  When Matthew along with his two unlikely companions discover Mireilles, they must embark on a journey that will change each of them forever and perhaps, at long last, spark light into the dark.

I give Yours Is the Night five out of five stars!

Happy Reading!
