I\u2019m delighted to wish Laura Wilkinson \u2018Happy Publication Day\u2019 on the launch of her latest novel What the Ocean Keeps<\/strong>. I loved Laura\u2019s last novel and was more than happy to read this one to provide a rare review, rather than just a shout out. I wasn\u2019t disappointed and I concur with Frances Quinn, (best-selling author of\u00a0The Lost Passenger) <\/em><\/strong>who described it as \u2018A compelling, beautifully written and almost unbearably poignant love story that shines a light on the forgotten aftermath of war.\u2019\u00a0You can find my full review below. <\/p>\n

What\u2019s the Book About?<\/strong><\/p>\n
The war\u2019s over but for Alma and Jack the fight for love and freedom has only just begun<\/em><\/p>\n
North Wales, 1918<\/p>\n
The guns in Europe have fallen silent but for Alma peace brings only hardship in the Welsh seaside town she calls home. After welcome independence as a munitions\u2019 worker, she is trapped by a painful arrangement with Bron, the man who saved her family from destitution. And for Jack, a Canadian soldier who fought for Britain, it means degradation in the overcrowded, feverish repatriation camp where thousands wait for the chance to sail home.<\/p>\n
When Alma and Jack meet in the shanty town which serves the camp, they fall passionately in love \u2013 and their romance becomes the one chance of escape. But dreams are fragile. Bron wants Alma for himself. Ships across the Atlantic are delayed time and again, Spanish \u2018flu spreads and the men \u2013 their sacrifice and bravery in the trenches ignored \u2013 are rebellious.<\/p>\n
** Inspired by the true events of the Kinmel Park mutiny,\u00a0What The Ocean Keeps<\/strong>\u00a0is a heart wrenching, unforgettable love story that weaves a woman\u2019s search for freedom with a soldier\u2019s struggle to return home as the world reels in the aftermath of World War 1 and pandemic.<\/p>\n
My Review<\/strong><\/p>\n
This book has so many layers that I wasn\u2019t sure where to start this review. In the end I cheated and once again referred back to Frances Quinn as I echo her comment that the book was \u2018tender, lyrical and heartbreaking, with characters I\u2019ll remember for a long time\u2019. That is how I felt once I\u2019d finished, but she says it far more eloquently than me. So now I\u2019ll try and explain why.<\/p>\n
Let\u2019s start with the Prologue, dated Liverpool, May 1919. It focuses on Jack as he faces a Court Martial for mutinity and it sets the scene for what is to follow. A feeling of disillusionment with those who see themselves as his superiors; a sense of waste and futility which is still seeing boys sacrificed; a desire for home and freedom, but most of all his love for Alma. Alma, the women he never expected to meet, and certainly not fall in love with. The woman who despite her own tribulations, still hoped and believed in a brighter future, a future that included Jack. As the court martial progresses the outcome is bleak and Jack is not a fool, but what breaks him is thinking of Alma,<\/p>\n
\u201cMore than anything, he cannot bear the idea of never explaining. To die knowing she will always believe he lied, that he isn\u2019t the man she thought he was. That he had broken her trust once again \u2026 The echo of a cough ricochets around the room \u2026 \u2018Private Moore, you have been found guilty of the charge of mutiny\u201d<\/p>\n
Well, what a start, how could I not fail to be drawn in. Now I wanted to know more about Jack and why he was being court martialled. I also wanted to know more about Alma who laughed and idolised Sylvia Pankhurst. But of course, most of all, my romantic little heart was hoping it had a happy ending, because it wasn\u2019t looking good. I knew I was being set up for the aforementioned heartbreak, poor Jack already appeared beaten. <\/p>\n
Shortly after we first meet Alma she has been forced into a contractual position as housekeeper for Bron Roberts, (a suitor she has previously spurned), largely as she needs a home for herself and her mother, and to pay off her father\u2019s gambling debts. But, one bright spot, Bron has a shop at the local Kinmel camp and Alma persuades him, reluctantly, to let her run it, whilst his employee is sick. It gives her back some semblence of independence and a release from the increasingly overbearing presence of Bron. It\u2019s also where she meets Jack, the tall, dark and handsome soldier, biding his time waiting for re-patriation to Nova Scotia. Their romance is dangerous built on snatched hours at the shop and secret meetings at the church. It\u2019s joyous and passionate, but Alma has a lot to lose if their romance is discovered, namely her job and by extension her home, and her reputation which still held currency. But she feels Jack is worth the risk, and I\u2019m right behind her cheerleading. <\/p>\n
So we follow their story in dated chapters leading upto the circumstances of Jack\u2019s Court Marshall and what happens as a result. I loved both Jack and Alma, and just wanted them to sail off safely to Canada to start a new life. Alma overcame so much but refused to be battered by her situation. She was loyal to her mother and her friend and steadfast in the belief that things would come right. Alma symbolised many women, who\u2019d seen their circumstances change during the war, especially after conscription was introduced in 1916. Factories, especially munitions needed a workforce and in the absence of men, the women stepped up. By 1918 there were over 1 million munitionettes. They worked long hours in hazardous, toxic conditions, (albeit at half the men\u2019s pay) but they also had camaraderie and for the first time social activities. Many factories formed women\u2019s football teams, something that gave them further freedom. That was Alma, football loving, Sylvia Pankhurst loving Alma, who lost 2 fingers in a factory accident but still held hope that things would change after the war. Sadly, things didn\u2019t quite materialise that way. Her freedom was somewhat stolen. The men returned from war and wanted jobs, jobs that in many cases were no longer there. Women were forced back into traditional service roles and in the absence of jobs, or husbands, had to rely on themselves to survive. They have been described as the \u201cSurplus\u201d generation due to the demographic imbalance. So Alma had little choice but to agree to act as housekeeper. Her friend and confidante Nell had fortuitously married an older, richer man, but her circumstances were virtually reliant on her ability to produce an heir. So bot had lives, still controlled by men.<\/p>\n
For Alma, Jack represented the future. He wasn\u2019t phased by her forward thinking, he was proud of her intelligence and independence. He\u2019d fought for freedom and extended that courtesy to Alma. But there was little sign of the freedom he\u2019d fought for in the camp. I\u2019d never heard of Kinmel Park, or by extension the mutiny, largely because after the event it was \u2018hushed up\u2019. Given that it represented one of the most serious military riots in British history, that was shameful. There were over 15,000 Canadian soldiers in the camp, all awaiting repatriation. But it was appallingly managed. Regimental units were split up and soldiers were lodged in overcrowded huts with meagre rations. The conditions were further worsened by the outbreak of Spanish Flu that had killed 80 men. They were not being paid and were confined to camp, while officers were flaunting their freedom and luxuries. The mood began to darken with the lack of troop ships. They were either delayed or re-allocated to other groups. The harsh Welsh winter was the final catalyst for what occurred. On the night of 4th March about 1,000 soldiers rebelled and looted local shops (like Alma\u2019s).The rioting and violence lasted until the early hours of next morning resulting in 5 deaths and multiple injuries. 78 men were arrested with 25 convicted of mutiny. Just like Jack.<\/p>\n
While I might have gone heavy on the history here, it\u2019s because Laura manages to infuse all that into her story but with a far lighter hand. That\u2019s partly what makes this book so special. With some historical fiction I\u2019m aware it\u2019s historical just because of the date or the costumes, or because I\u2019m faced with facts and figures that make it feel like a lecture. But this book gives a real sense of place, of the history and the social mores without overselling it and that makes what is said in some ways more relevent. I can insert myself into the story and feel things so much better. It also means that my emotions are fully invested. I already loved Alma and Jack but set against such adversity, I was just hoping against hope for my happy ending. <\/p>\n
Laura has managed to write a not only a beautiful, tender romance between two compelling characters, but she also sheds light on a shameful episode in British history. All of this made more believable by her supporting characters that help propel the story forward. I\u2019m not sure this review does justice to the book, but in closing, I\u2019d simply say \u2013 read it you won\u2019t be disappointed.<\/p>\n
About the Author<\/strong><\/p>\n
\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n
I write the kind of books I love to read. Emotional, ultimately hopeful stories with real women and men at their heart \u2013 flawed people trying to do their best in a complex world. I\u2019ve several novels under my belt and though most of my fiction is contemporary, I also write historical fiction focused on strong women. I\u2019m a creative writing tutor and mentor too.<\/p>\n
I\u2019ve spent more than half my life in the south of England, but my soul belongs to the north. Born in Liverpool, I grew up in Wales, studied in Manchester and after a spell in London as an actor, I now live in Brighton with my carpenter:musician husband and ginger sons. I have a passion for history, fashion and anything that glitters.<\/p>\n
