The final compelling historical saga concluding a trilogy that
began with Storms of War and The Edge of the Fall, from popular TV
historian and critically-acclaimed author Kate Williams. Celia De
Witt is half-German, half-English and heir to her family's vast
fortune. But it is 1929, the world is changing and her life seems
less secure than ever. A shocking revelation from her father sends
her far from England and the life she knew and headlong into New
York, a city brimming with money and promise. Celia sets about
saving the family firm by creating an innovative new range of
convenience foods for the new generation of independent young
women. But she also has other plans. The son she thought was dead
is in America and the man she once thought she loved is nearby -
but if she opens the Pandora's Box of the past, she may find other
secrets will escape... As the shadow of war once again threatens to
fall across Europe, Celia is determined to save those she loves,
even if it comes at the highest price... 'A beautifully conjured
family saga. Fans of Downton Abbey will love it' Alison Weir 'This
terrific saga comes with a fascinating twist ... Williams has a
gift for showing how great movements in history affect the lives of
people caught up in them' The Times
