Annie’s Day (Released November 2025)

22/09/2025 by Apple Gidley Apple Gidley

War took everything. Love never had a chance. Until now.

As a young Australian Army nurse, Annie endures the brutalities of World War II in Singapore and New Guinea. Later, seeking peace, she takes refuge in Berlin-only to find herself caught in the upheaval of the Blockade. Through it all, the death of a man she barely knew leaves a wound that refuses to heal, threatening to bind her to a life of loneliness.

Decades later, Annie is still haunted by what was lost-and what might have been. Her days are quiet, but her memories are loud. When a dying man’s fear forces her to confront her own doubts, she forms an unexpected friendship that rekindles something she thought was long gone: hope.

Annie’s Day is a powerful story of love, war, and the quiet courage it takes to start again-even when it seems far too late.
