'A powerfully emotive family drama featuring well-drawn and
sympathetic characters set against a little known but momentous
event in US history, which will strike a chord with those who
enjoyed Pat Barker's Regeneration and Richard Flanagan's The Narrow
Road to the Deep North' WE LOVE THIS BOOK From the author of TV
BOOK CLUB PICK, TIGER HILLS Jim Stonebridge lives a solitary life
with his father, a haunted man, on an apple estate in deepest
Vermont. The year is 1932 and the grand house, once filled with
laughter and parties, now stagnates under the weight of secrets and
stories untold. Jim is out fishing in the quietness of the woods
one day when he spots a plane banking low over the river. From
behind the pilot streams a mass of balloons, held by a woman with
rich red hair. Madeleine Scott, a spirited bohemian, bursts into
their lives, bringing light and laughter to the estate once more.
But with the bittersweet unravelling that love brings come
memories. Of a friendship forged on battlefields and a past denied.
