- The battle for love is a war worth winning -

Weddings signify the eternal bond between two people in love. But on this day, a bullet ends a marriage at the exact moment of its union. In Confessions of a War Child, the lasting damage draws two towns into a lifetime of hatred and war, and a new, young bride into a lifetime of sadness and grief.

Now eighty-seven years of age, Camilia has never recovered from the loss of her husband, and true soul mate, sixty-six years ago. During all that time, she never once revealed the secret 'locked' in her heart. So when, through no real fault of her own, her 'key' falls into the hands of twenty-four-year-old refugee Nader, we are taken on an adventure - traveling to his exciting future and revisiting her devastating past - to find and return what is rightfully hers.

Narrated by the deceased groom, weaving a beautiful love story among dangerous warfare, Confessions of a War Child creates a mesmerizing atmosphere that will captivate readers from the very first words.

Inspired by true narratives of war children, with a unique mix of mystery, romance, and murder, the story blends fiction and truth in an engaging manner that can't be denied. As the first installment, Confessions of a War Child is certain to resonate with readers around the world.
