In 1944, a German Jewish refugee is sent to Wales to interview Rudolf Hess; in Snowdonia, a seventeen-year-old girl, the daughter of a fiercely nationalistic shepherd, dreams of the bright lights of an English city; and in a nearby POW camp, a German soldier struggles to reconcile his surrender with his sense of honour. As their lives intersect, all three will come to question where they belong and where their loyalties lie.

Thanks so much.Book arrived today along with about 15 others so I must be the April Smile Day Sweepstakes winner. This is so exciting, all those books from all over the world and no two the same. Bookcrossing is the best hobby.
Thanks for the Bookcrossing stickers and bookmark. i love that it's an ex-library book. I buy book from our library all the time for releasing.

Beautifully written story. when I was reading about the German P>O.W's I thought they're like our own young soldiers, fighting for their country while keeping home close in their thoughts. Loved Esther's story, so strong and courageous during a very difficult time as the story explores those wartime relationships that left so many chilrden fatherless.
