Book description
Sunday Times bestselling author Anne Baker returns with another
compelling saga of family secrets, heartache and happy endings. When
Nancy Seymour's RAF pilot husband, Charles, is killed, her life falls
apart. Not only has she lost the man she loved, but she also loses her
home and must find a way to support herself and their little girl, Caro,
on her own. With the outbreak of World War Two, Nancy is grateful for
the sanctuary offered by Charles's father in the form of a little
cottage in the countryside. But his mother Henrietta has always
disapproved of her son's wife and seems hell-bent on making her life a
misery. Nancy has little idea, though, of the depths to which Henrietta
is prepared to sink. With the danger of war ever-present, Nancy must
find the strength to protect those she holds dear through years of
hardship and peril. And, if she survives all this, perhaps she can still
hope for a second chance at happiness...
