Darkest Hour is a tale of misunderstanding and mismatched lovers, a 100,000 word historical romance set in glossy and comfortable modern London, but peppered with vivid flash backs of love and loss during the anxious days of the Battle of Britain. The heroine is Victoria Woods King, a sassy octogenarian corporate secretary who proudly served in the Women's Auxiliary Air Force and has spent the past sixty-five years gaily recounting her wartime exploits to all interested parties.
She is married to Laird, a sickly, stubborn, highly decorated former Royal Air Force pilot who still harbors nightmares about the war and who has consequently never spoken publicly or privately about his experiences to anyone, choosing instead to spend the past six decades enjoying a life of well-earned peace and anonymity. Their marriage has endured two monarchs, thirteen Prime Ministers, and the rise and fall of the Spice Girls, but their heretofore unbreakable bond is tested when Victoria signs them both up to participate in an upcoming museum piece on World War II. Now the two of them are forced to remember, forced to recount, and forced to reevaluate the nascent days of their love affair, and their story is a struggle between memory, hope, self-recrimination, and forgiveness that leads them both to unexpected places.
