1943, Wartime Italy. Trattoria di Luca sits at the heart of the
small Umbrian town of Amatino. For decades it has been run by the
di Luca and Capaldi patriarchs and become a byword not only for
fabulous food, but also wine from the Capaldi vineyard. But now the
last of these great men is dead, Italy is consumed by war and
everything must change. Sophie di Luca has always assumed her
beloved father would leave the trattoria to her, a fine chef in her
own right. But in Mussolini's Italy a woman's place is strictly in
the home, and Sophie's father has secretly arranged for Giorgio
Capaldi to come back from Rome to take over Trattoria di Luca.
Charismatic, forceful, grieving the loss of his wife and unborn
baby in an Allied bombing raid, Giorgio is in no mood to compromise
with Sophie. As conflict within the family rises, Mussolini falls
and the Germans march in. Life is about to become very dangerous
indeed. An atmospheric and moving novel, perfect for fans of Santa
Montefiore and Victoria Hislop. 'A joyous read, which really spoke
to me about the indomitability of the human spirit. A wonderful
book.' Elizabeth Enfield, author of Ivy and Abe Praise for
Annabelle Thorpe: 'Unputdownable!' Claire Dyer, author of The Last
Day 'A pacy, engaging tale of human weakness and of passion so
overwhelming it can make fools of us all' Daily Express
