Scotland, 1940 In a house on the east coast, Jane faces motherhood
alone. With her husband away at war, there is no one to protect her
from small town suspicions and she must learn to keep her secrets
to herself. Three decades later her daughter Felicity leaves their
life behind for Montreal, glad to flee the unknowns that have
plagued her so far. But her personal battles are nothing compared
to the unrest here, where a commune in rural Quebec and a child of
her own might be her saviours. The child grows up to be Pidge, a
woman surprised to find that she will inherit her grandmother's
Scottish house, yet curious about the ingredients that make up a
family's history. Amidst the flying feathers of the wild goose that
stalks the kitchen, Pidge will find unexpected answers to the
questions that have beset these women through the years. The Heart
Beats in Secret is a powerful story of three women and the secrets
and bonds that have defined them. It explores the wilderness of the
heart, the secrets concealed with every beat and the many ways it
is possible to be a mother.
