"It is 1917 and Nellie, 17 years old and pregnant, has returned to Cape Breton from Boston to find her lover. She encounters rejection and humiliation and is told to clear out and never speak of this again. In her shame, she contemplates suicide but a passing stranger, headed to the World War I front, offers her some gifts that could help her survive, and allow him to run away from his own past. Never Speak of This Again takes the reader from eastern Canada to western Canada, to Europe, and back again. In the messy existence of life, heroes can be victims and villains, and Nellie hopes there is always a chance for redemption, but she wonders how far she can risk society's scorn for her own personal happiness."--Publisher.
