At the Water's Edge by Sara Gruen (2015)

Wonderful story of  Scotland during World War II.  Madeline Hyde is dragged from Philadelphia in the middle of the war by her high society husband, who avoided the service, only to prove that his father really did see the Loch Ness Monster.  They land in a small Scottish village, and while her husband and his friend go off chasing the monster, Maddie opens her eyes to the horrors and strains of war around her, starts helping out, befriends some of the local villagers and awakens to her own strength and possibilities beyond what she has known. If the author Sara Gruen sounded familiar, I did read her best selling Water for Elephants.
