With My Last Breath

Emilia wants her husband back…But are the dead best left undisturbed?

1919.

Emilia’s journalist husband, Owen Flett, is missing presumed dead during World War I.

When she is drawn into a seance she meets Dr McIvor, who says he can bring Owen back. Although she does not accept such a thing is possible, she wants so desperately to believe it that she agrees. And then Owen returns.

Surely the timing was a coincidence, and there must be an logical explanation? But as her joy recedes, Emilia is puzzled by Owen’s behaviour. Why is he so different? Could the changes be explained by his experiences during the war, or is it something more sinister?

Something she can barely bring herself to believe.
