Produktbeschreibung
The beautiful new historical fiction novel from bestseller Catherine Law One night, everything changed... Air raid sirens wail across London and nineteen-year-old Clare takes her chances in the streets rather than heading to the office basement - and risk being in the same vicinity as him, the man who hurt her in the worst way possible... ... and makes a decision that will haunt her for the rest of her life. Over a year later, and Clare is heartbroken to be saying goodbye to her newborn daughter Mirren. Leaving her in the care of her sister, in a remote - and therefore safe - house in The Highlands, she heads back south to become a map maker for Bomber Command. The work is tough, and Clare struggles with having a direct hand in killing ordinary people. Combined with the guilt for leaving her baby behind, her dark thoughts could destroy her... or make her stronger than ever. A heart-breaking tale of love, loss, and redemption, this is a moving and poignant story of motherhood and the complexities of healing in the aftermath of war. Praise for Catherine Law: 'A beautifully written emotional, absorbing story about love, family, and secrets. I absolutely loved it.' Siobhan Daiko, author of The Girl from Venice ''I was engrossed in this beautiful, heartfelt story. Characters to care about and a plot that kept me turning the pages.' Helen Parusel, author of A Mother's War
