MY THOUGHTS:
In 1915 a telegram is received and with World War I in full swing, it can’t be good news. A family receives a letter and it conveys that their son is injured. Charle’s holds many secrets and the fear of revealing them makes him feel as if he can never speak of them. 1943, London: Elizabeth Carmichael longing for the day that she is reunited with her fiancĂ©. He is miles away in the RAF fighting in the war. As Elizabeth is playing her part in the war effort. While in a hurried rush she runs into a man, whom she immediately recognizes from an old photograph prior to the start of the war. London, 1960 long after the Wars have ended Violet Carmichael finds a hidden compartment in an ole dusty wrings desk. Inside the compartment are old worn diaries. She discovers inside one of the diaries an old telegram speaking of the devastation of a family that were forever scared by two world wars and a man who risked his life for love.
The Telegram, written by author Debbie Rix is a phenomenal story of family, wars and surviving the unimaginable. I absolutely loved everything about this unputdownable story. I was so enthralled by this intriguing story that was filled with so many unexpected plot twist and turns. This amazingly written beautiful and powerful story was captivating and moving. I loved the multiple timelines….WOW!! It stirred in my heart and pulled at my heart strings. I loved that it was a true story and that made it all more phenomenal. I highly recommend this emotional book.

One message will change everything…
1915, London: Shaking, she opens the faded red front door and her heart races as the young boy on the steps holds out the telegram. The words swim before her. They can’t be true; this can’t be happening. Nothing will ever be the same again.
1943, London: Elizabeth Carmichael rushes out down the steps of her town house in her smart army uniform, daydreaming of her handsome fiancĂ© posted miles away in the RAF, and determined to play her part in the war effort. Not looking where she’s going, Elizabeth collides with a tall man in the middle of the street. She instantly recognises him from a faded photograph from before the war. This chance meeting will change everything Elizabeth thought she knew about herself.
1960, London: Violet Carmichael wipes the dust from an antique writing desk, not expecting to find a hidden compartment, or the old diaries nestled inside. Peeling apart the yellowing pages, a story unfolds of a family devastated by two world wars and a man who risked his life for freedom and for love. It leads her to discover a telegram that will finally unlock a decades-old family secret…
