      <image:title>The Glovemaker's War - Secrets, lies, and bravery.</image:title>
      <image:caption>It was time to go. The Allied invasion of France had begun, and Luc would join his comrades in the Resistance at daybreak in the nearby mountains. Through the only window the hideaway, he could see the fading moon low in the sky. Pale and watery, it sneaked out intermittently from behind the drifting clouds, casting strange shadows on the floor of the barn. In the darkness of the outbuilding, the animals were slowly waking one by one, stirred by a circadian rhythm over which they had no control. Running his finger over Eve’s cheek, he kissed her gently and breathed in her essence, trying to preserve her in his memory forever. She smiled in her sleep and touched his arm. He felt for his clothes on the floor and wrestled on his torn pants, then yanked a ragged sweater over his head. He had never felt such heartache. He wanted to stay in the safe house with her forever, but it was his duty to fight for his country.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Katherine Williams was born and grew up on the Wirral peninsula in Cheshire, England, before moving to London to study Business with French and Spanish. In her late thirties she moved to the United States with her two young sons. She now lives in rural Connecticut where she loves to cook for family and friends, garden in her vegetable patch and walk in the surrounding countryside with her dog, Winnie. An avid reader, she started writing short stories five years ago. Her fascination for World War Two history, particularly the role of women in the Resistance, led her to write The Glovemaker’s War. This is her first full length novel.</image:caption>
