Alice Conyngham’s War

1939. Britain is on the brink of war, and Alice Conyngham’s life is about to change forever. The arrival of government officials, soldiers, and the Women’s Land Army on her estate signals the start of a new and uncertain era. Her staff leave for new duties, her stables are requisitioned, and Alice must find ways to protect her home, her beloved horses, and the fragile order of her world.
Amid the upheaval, she finds unexpected companionship in Brantley Fuller, her late husband’s closest friend, whose presence stirs both comfort and desire. As the war encroaches, Alice must navigate loss, love, and the demands of a society transformed by conflict.
Richly detailed and vividly imagined, Alice Conyngham’s War captures a woman’s resilience, the tensions of a changing England, and the quiet courage it takes to preserve home, heart, and hope in the shadow of global turmoil.
