The soldier's wife [large print] : a novel / Joanna Trollope.
Dan Riley is a major in the British Army. After a tour of duty in Afghanistan, he is coming home to the wife and young daughter he adores. The outside world sees these reunions as a taste of heaven after months of hell. But are they? How does a man who's trained to fight adjust to family and domestic life? And how does the family cope if he can't? How much can Dan's wife, Alexa, sacrifice her own needs to support his commitment to a way of life that demands everything, not just of him, but of her and the children as well? What happens when love and vocation collide head on?
