By early 1919, the hopeful cheers of Armistice Day have faded into a quiet, uneasy silence. Hettie returns to Canada, married to Alfred - a stranger in many ways - and haunted by the memory of her first husband, Geoffrey, whose death she never fully mourned. Burdened by unresolved grief, Hettie struggles to adjust to civilian life. As she attempts to piece together the remnants of her shattered past, she finds herself facing the cruel judgments of her new family who are hell-bent on making her feel like an outsider in her own home. Facing heartache and Alfred's family's cold cruelty, the shadows of doubt and despair threaten to consume her. Only Hettie's brother Freddie truly understands her pain, though he too harbors secrets and pain that weigh heavily on his soul. As the siblings navigate their emotional storms, the stakes become impossibly high. Will Hettie learn to embrace the bittersweet reality of her adjustment year, or will the weight of her sorrow and the strain of marriage lead her down the painful path toward divorce? The poignant conclusion to the WW1 trilogy explores the difficult journey toward healing in a world struggling to find peace. Adjustment Year invites readers to witness a woman's struggle for hope, healing, and the possibility of love in an era tinged with heartache and transformation. Join Hettie as she fights to reclaim her life, and discover if she can find joy amid overwhelming sorrow.
