Six months after her husband's sudden death, Leonora Galloway sets
off for a holiday in Paris with her daughter Penelope. At last the
time has come when secrets can be shared and explanations begin...
Their journey starts with an unscheduled stop at the imposing
Thiepval Memorial to the dead of the Battle of the Somme near
Amiens. Amongst those commemorated is Leonora's father. "The date
of his death is recorded and 30th April, 1916. But Leonora wasn't
born until 14th March 1917."
Penelope at once supposes a simple wartime illegitimacy as the clue
to her mother's unhappy childhood and the family's sundered
connections with her aristocratic heritage, about which she has
always known so little.
But nothing could have prepared her, or the reader, for the
extraordinary story that is about to unfold.
"From the Paperback edition."
