Caught unfolds during the London Blitz, following two men whose lives become tangled through duty and gossip. Back follows a soldier returning home to a changed world and a complicated loss. Concluding, often named Green's favorite of his own novels, follows a single summer day and the disappearance of a schoolgirl at a countryside school. Readers walk away with a fuller picture of how war reshaped ordinary British lives.
