The Pink War boldly explores the compelling intersection of love, loyalty, and courage amid the brutal backdrop of World War II. Follow two working-class men as they answer their nation’s call, battling against the forces of Nazism and Fascism across North Africa, Italy, and Western Europe. As soldiers, they earn their stripes and prove their mettle. Yet, beyond the battlefield, they face an equally formidable challenge: concealing their illicit love for each other in a time when same-sex relationships are condemned. This gripping tale uncovers the complexities of love in a world at war, offering a poignant tribute to devotion and friendship under the most trying of circumstances.

    A truly gripping and emotive book. Hooked into the story from page 1 and onwards, by the Author, I’ve read this from cover to cover in a matter of days. It’s been a thoroughly enjoyable and enlightening read. I was drawn into the lives of the characters immediately and found myself identifying with emotional struggles and prejudices they faced. The story is also true to historical facts; highlighting the horrific events of WW2 and the devastation experienced by many. A fantastic read through and through.
