They stand by side on the rock, facing out to sea. They are hidden
from land here. Even spies would see nothing of them. It is spring
1917 in the Cornish coastal village of Zennor, and the young artist
Clare Coyne is waking up to the world. Ignoring the whispers from
her neighbours, she has struck a rare friendship with D.H. Lawrence
and his German wife, who are hoping to escape the war-fever of
London. In between painting and visits to her new friends she
whiles away the warm days with her cousin John, who is on leave
from the trenches, harbouring secrets she couldn't begin to
understand. But as the heat picks up, so too do the fear and the
gossip that haunt the village. And the freedom to love will come at
a steep price. ______________________________________________

beautifully written' Sunday Telegraph 'Electrifying . . . Helen
Dunmore mesmerizes you with her magical pen' Daily Mail 'Deceit

lies that have the truth wrapped up in them somewhere make
Dunmore's stories ripples with menace and suspense' Sunday Times
