Hi Claire. Thanks for writing. I'm always here to answer questions and engage through the questions tab. I love Goodreads! I don't currently use the friends feature as I'm a bit of a Luddite and try to keep my social media simple. I'm super accessible though - including on direct email at helen@helensimonson.com and I even Skype with book clubs (free of course). Do let me know how Major Pettigrew turns out! Best regards, Helen S.

No question, just wanted to say that it has been a long time since I read a book that I just had to sit and read until I finished it----"The Summer Before the War" was just that book, it was a beautiful Sunday afternoon and I laid on the couch and read and read and read. I just had to finish it. Thank you for such a lovely story. Bring on more. I don't mind waiting. Are you writing another?

I must tell you, I am still processing your beautifully touching story. I read your first novel but this one is so special! I felt as though I was sitting in the garden with Hugh and his family at the lovely cottage. The descriptions of the war were chilling. I too am a writer. You might enjoy my novel - AN EVEN EXCHANGE. It is told in twovoices and is set inthe US and England. How did you research WW 1 info?
