The Scottish Highlands, 1943 A family torn apart by the secrets of
war. In a remote corner of Scotland something momentous is
underway. When Effie's father receives a government notice to quit
Kirk Farm, the lives of the Ross family and those of the whole
community are utterly disrupted. But for Effie - irrepressible,
beautiful, vital - wartime changes bring her close to Toni, an
Italian prisoner of war sent to work on the farm. Before long, the
young couple are planning a future together when the war is finally
over. It's a future that's under threat from the start. For there
are those among them who cannot quite be trusted. Someone is
determined to find out what lies behind the upheaval - and to pass
those secrets into enemy hands. To stop them will create
devastation beyond anything anyone could have imagined. Based on
true events of the Second World War, this evocative novel captures
the emotions, dangers and atmosphere of the days when the world
faced its darkest hour.
