Three generations of women fractured by secrets . . .

Wales, 1946. The jubilant days following the end of the war have brought peace to some in the small village of Pontcarreg. But Rose Howells is desperate to escape her mother’s stifling grief after her brother was killed in action in Sicily.

Rose accepts a role as kitchen maid at Greystone Hall. There she meets Marco. He’s a farm hand and one of the Sicilian prisoners of war interned nearby.

His velvety brown eyes and mass of jet-black hair seem to melt her insides. But Rose knows falling in love with Marco could be deadly.

She writes a letter ending the affair, but can’t bear to give it to him. Then disaster strikes. Marco is sent home to Sicily, leaving Rose with a secret she swears never to reveal.

Sicily. Decades later, Jennifer Howells has the world at her feet, when she receives an inconspicuous brown envelope that turns her life upside down. A faded document that reveals the truth about her past.

Jennifer soon realises the answer lies across the sea in the olive-crested hills of sun-drenched Sicily . . .

Captivating and unforgettable story about the secrets that tear families apart, set on the Italian island of Sicily.
