SOMEWHERE IN FRANCE
“A tale richly steeped in the atmosphere, drama and heroism of an evolving and war-torn
world. A compelling and memorable read.” —Lynn Sheene, author of
The Last Time I Saw Paris
“Utterly engaging and richly satisfying,
Somewhere in France
depicts the very best in love and war. Fans of
Downton Abbey
will devour this novel!” —Erika Robuck, bestselling author of
Fallen Beauty
“[Robson’s] deft touch as a storyteller keeps readers engaged in the story of the
lovers, as well as illuminating the bigger picture of the war raging around them.”

Publishers Weekly
“[T]he fiercely independent Lady Elizabeth Neville-Ashford (Lilly) will be sure to
inspire readers.” —Huffington Post
“Robson intermingles the overarching themes of love, war, and societal strictures
in this appealing read that should resonate with fans of
