A heartwarming historical novel set on the Homefront during World War
Two. For fans of Kathryn Hughes.
Land Girl Connie Carter thought she'd finally left her past behind once
and for all when she married Henry Jameson, Helmstead's vicar and the
love of her life. Headstrong Connie and mild-mannered Henry might be
different as chalk and cheese, but she's determined to be the best wife
she can be and prove the village gossips wrong! But Connie doesn't
really believe that she belongs in Henry's genteel world of tea-drinking
and jam-making, and the cracks are already starting to show.
When Connie's heroism makes her front page news, her past comes back to
haunt her in a terrifying way. A different kind of war has come to
Helmstead, and soon it's a fight for both their marriage and their
lives...
