The Final Act by Hilary Green
It is Spring 1944 but noone realises yet that the end is in sight. For the four friends their world has changed absolutely in five years, friends have been killed, love has been lost, it seems that this terrible world of violence and seperation will continue forever. In one moment Richard makes a mistake behind enemy lines that causes devastating tragedy. Rose, performing for the troops crossing France, at last finds a man she feels she can love and is forced to make the most difficult decision of her life. Merry's lover is returned to him from the jaws of death only to be seperated from him by the demands of the future. In war and peace, in joy and despair, life continues - but never as you may expect.
