In The Last Reunion, Kayte Nunn tells a gripping story that spans across decades—from the brutal jungles of Burma during World War II to the art auctions of present-day London. The novel follows a group of women known as the ‘Wasbies’—members of the Women’s Auxiliary Service who braved dangerous combat zones to support British troops. Fast forward to the modern day, when an art historian stumbles upon a Japanese artefact with a mysterious history. As the threads of the past and present intertwine, long-buried secrets about loyalty, betrayal, and the cost of survival are brought to light. With its immersive settings, richly drawn characters, and emotional depth, this is a powerful narrative of courage, sacrifice, and the lasting impact of war on women’s lives.
