About this Event
'At the turn of the 20th century, young Lucinda Dare loses her precious teddy bear, Edward, on a train. That same bear finds its way into the arms of Bartholomew Le Grande, a lonely boy bound for boarding school. Neither could know that this small act of fate will bind their destiny long into the future. Their lives echo one another’s—bound by privilege, pressure, and a longing for love.
As England marches toward the Great War, Lucy has become a spirited young woman fighting for equality and social justice with the suffrage movement. She finds her strength as a volunteer Red Cross nurse in France. Bart, now a commissioned junior officer, carries old Ted bear as his lucky mascot to the carnage of the battlefields on the Western Front...
Innocence Lost, Destiny Found is a moving story of courage, heartbreak and the quiet power of the human heart. A story of how love can find us, even after the world has fallen apart.'
