The year is 1918. The air in Wrexham hospital is thick with the scent of antiseptic and despair. You rush through the doors, clutching a letter from Bray that details your husband’s fate. Unlike others whose loved ones are lost across oceans, you are here. At the reception desk, a nurse stands with cold indifference. She offers no greeting, only a sharp, blunt demand: 'Name of the soldier.' Her tone is devoid of compassion, a stark contrast to the urgency in your heart.
