A Londoner by birth, Alice Chase had met her husband Walter, while visiting Somerset on a charabanc trip. She had now lived in the small Somerset village of Bramwell with Walter and their four children for twenty years. But the past can throw long shadows, and Alice had never been completely sure which of the two dashing young brothers she should have married. Into her contented world, her old friend Tilly comes for a visit, and unwittingly stirs up those feelings. Alice refuses to acknowledge them, knowing her family means everything to her. But as that family life seems gradually to be disintegrating, Alice becomes more unsettled until a tragedy takes her back to London for a traumatic week. In the early months of 1939, however, there are far more ominous thoughts to occupy minds and hearts than the problems of one small family. Yet, while the fate of the world is poised on a knife-edge, Alice's own future is finally sealed in a way she never expected. Filled with Rowena Summers' richly detailed minutiae of family life and captivating characters, her enthralling new novel brings all the emotion and drama her fans have come to expect.
