It's Never Over (Exile Classics)by Morley Callaghan
Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:Combining romance with the darker side of human nature, this novel opens with the hanging of an ex-World War I soldier for involuntary murder. The element of violence blends with a love story involving the late soldiers sister, who seeks to possess the life of her brothers closest friend, John Hughes. Hughes then finds himself drawn into the circle affected by the hanging, contemplating murdering the sister himself. Capturing the terror of a war abroad as it penetrates the tranquility of a small town, this tale illustrates how a mans death can haunt those who endure his execution.
