From an award-winning author - an epic novel of love, betrayal, and finding where you truly belong.1943 Lidia De Angelis has kept a low profile since Mussolinis laws wrenched her from her childhood sweetheart. But when the Germans occupy Venice, she must flee the city to save her life. Lidia joins the partisans in the Venetian mountains, where she meets David, an English soldier fighting for the same cause. As she grows closer to him, harsh German reprisals and her own ardent patriotic activities threaten to tear them apart. Years later While sorting through her grandmothers belongings after her death, Charlotte discovers a Jewish prayer book, unopened letters written in Italian, and a fading photograph of a group of young people in front of the Doges Palace. Intrigued by her grandmothers refusal to talk about her time in Italy, Charlotte travels to Venice in search of her roots. There, she learns not only the devastating truth about her grandmothers past, but also about her own... Perfect for readers of Rhys Bowen, Fiona Valpy and Victoria Hislop. What real readers are saying:a beautiful story with a compelling historical storyline that you wont want to put down. Ann Bennett, bestselling author of The Orphan House. Siobhan Daiko will tug at your heartstrings, and leave you desperate for more. The Coffee Pot Book Club. One of my absolute favourite books and a must read for those who love a great escape into historical fiction. Goodreads Reviewer.
