The Quiet Between Battles - W.D.L Diamond
After a brutal confrontation with the Imperium, Cathryn and her daughters retreat to a secluded Welsh valley to recover. But even in the safety of the hills, old wounds ache, loyalties shift, and long‑lost family ties resurface. As Elizabeth and Miquel venture out for supplies, they uncover more than provisions — they find the beginnings of healing, truth, and the fragile hope that comes in the quiet between battles.
