The Winter Soldier by Daniel Mason
The stunning third novel from the bestselling author of The Piano Tuner and A Far Country. As the First World War devastates Europe, The Winter Soldier is the story of one man thrust, utterly unprepared, into a remote medical outpost in the Carpathian mountains, and the woman that is set to save him.
