Forget Me Not
Every Remembrance Sunday, a woman places a small bouquet of forget-me-nots against a blank section of a village war memorial where no name has ever been carved. After her death, the tradition continues exactly as she instructed, but nobody can explain why.
Curiosity draws digital investigator Rhys Maren back to the quiet North Wales village. What begins as a simple question soon becomes an investigation into forgotten records, wartime archives and the remarkable life of Gwynedd Hughes, whose carefully preserved photograph, recording and notebook reveal a story hidden for more than eighty years. As Rhys follows the evidence, he discovers that remembrance is not always shaped by great historical events, but by the quiet determination of ordinary people who refuse to let another life be forgotten.
What follows is more than an investigation into a missing name. It is an exploration of memory, history and the fragile way communities preserve the past. As forgotten lives emerge from parish records, war memorials and personal archives, Rhys discovers that history is rarely complete and that sometimes the most important questions begin with the smallest acts of remembrance.
Forget Me Not is a historical mystery inspired by the real history of Britain's war memorials, remembrance and archival research, where evidence, compassion and ordinary lives come together to reveal the stories history almost left behind.
