The Story Collector by Iris Costello

I enjoyed this story, which appeared to be 3 separate stories  in 3 different timelines, but which all came together very cleverly at the end.

In London in 1915 Katrina who is a Tarot card reader and a baker struggles in war torn Britain to keep herself and her friends going, whilst trying to aid the poor and promote women’s rights. However she holds a few secrets which threaten to blow her world apart.

In Germany in 1918 a female German researcher in the camps befriends a silent male British soldier – very dangerous for them both.

In Cornwall, in the present day, Edie finds a box in a wall of the house she is renovating.

Well written, and cleverly woven together, I highly recommend this book.
