Grey Souls is an atmospheric literary mystery set in France in December 1917, near the front during the First World War. In a small town shadowed by artillery fire and passing wounded soldiers, the murder of a young girl appears to be solved when a deserter is convicted and executed. Years later, the narrator continues to struggle with the town’s secrets, guilt, and buried history.
