Acerca deste libro electrónico
A young girl's search for her identity and for a love that can overcome her past.
Questa Adamson is stranded in Italy for the duration of the Second World War. When she finally returns to England she is haunted by terrible memories. She finds that the safe childhood world she remembers has disappeared and that she is as alone in her home country as she has been in Italy.
She also finds that she has inherited a tumbledown manor house in Shropshire and is determined to restore the estate to its former glory, despite rationing and post-war austerity. And when she meets her mysterious neighbor, Marcus, it seems as if she might, at last, begin to drop her guard and learn to love.
But loving Marcus brings its own special difficulties and Questa soon finds herself faced with an extraordinary and painful choice.
