Description
TRAVEL FROM WARTIME WALES TO SIXTIES SICILY IN THIS BREATHTAKING CROSS-GENERATIONAL SAGA ABOUT A DAUGHTER ROCKED BY HER FAMILY'S SECRET PAST.
________________________________________________
Wales, 1943.
Sarah Lewis should be heartbroken when her husband doesn’t return from war. But he was never the kind husband she hoped for. And now she’s stuck with her cruel mother-in-law on the family farm.
Sarah must do what is best for her young son. So she leaves the farm for the safety of her sister’s home.
Despite herself, she begins to notice Carlo, an Italian prisoner from the war. Longing looks soon turn into love letters and a connection neither of them can sever.
But fraternization between the prisoners and local women are forbidden. As their love grows, so does the danger all around them . . .
Twenty-five years later, their daughter holds her father’s hand as he takes his last breath and whispers a name: Giulietta.
But who is Giulietta, and who are the young woman and baby in an old photograph?
The secrets of the past collide as the family are shaken to their very core, forced to revisit memories they’d rather forget to uncover the truth.
Perfect for fans of Fiona Valpy, Barbara Davis, Karen Swan, Amanda Weinburg or Anita Chapman.
