Summary

Inspired by one of the last great untold stories of WW1.

1916. Young artist Sam Burke is spared death by firing squad on the battlefields of France and brought to a remote castle by the Irish Sea. At the ‘Tin Nose Shop’, he is tasked with creating intricate masks to hide the mutilated faces of his fellow soldiers from the Front. While he tries to come to terms with the death of his best friend and the promise he failed to keep, Sam and the disfigured soldiers struggle to return to their former lives and their loved ones.

A stirring and emotional tale based on the real-life story of the Tin Nose Shop.

Beautifully Crafted

Beautifully written. It really takes you to the mental trauma suffered by WW1 troops and their families. Excellent narration too.

Premise intriguing but plot tedious

I had to struggle to finish this. I thought it sounded really interesting when I read the blurb and reviews, but it turned out to be a very amateur love story.
