In David's novel, "The Woman Who Loved Too Well," a young World War II hero persuades his wife, who is an agent for the French Resistance, to use her influence upon a Nazi officer so that the Germans will free a captured RAF pilot. But the plan, which unfolds in unexpected ways, becomes a scenario of passion, betrayal, and revenge.
THE WOMAN WHO LOVED TOO WELL (both the novel and the screenplay) and the novel THE GHOST LOVERS find their tension and their surprise in World War Two romantic triangles.
