Publisher's Synopsis
Far away in France the Great War moves inexorably onward. The peaceful calm of Cresswell Manor in Devon is shattered as more and more soldiers arrive to recover from their wounds and convalesce. With their menfolk away at the Front, the women take on the burden of running the estate. Will life ever be the same again for Rowan, in conflict with society and fearful of what the future holds or for Esmeralda, who is riddled with guilt? Is it too late for Hannah to find her life's companion and will Dolly ever be reconciled with the man she loves?
