Romney Marsh, July 1940. When invasion threatens, you have to grow up quickly. Sixteen-year-old Peggy has been putting on a brave face since the fall of France, but now the enemy is overhead, and the rules are changing. Staying on the right side of the law proves harder than she expects when a plane crash-lands in the Marsh: it's Peggy who finds its broken pilot; a young Polish man, Henryk. Peggy secretly cares for Henryk while he hides in a remote church. As something more blossoms between the two, and other secrets come to light, Peggy and Henryk are forced to question the loyalties and beliefs they thought they held dear.

There was an intriguing plot, but the pace killed it. The pages went on and on and on with little to no action. It was war time, but there was hardly any danger? Not to mention the parts of the annoying little brother... No one needed to hear his story. He was weak and naive and just a terrible character as a whole. Not once did I feel he gained maturity or bravery and I thought with time, a progression would show.
I did like Peggy and Henryk... Actually I craved more of them. I needed more mystery and more romance. I needed more emotion and more gut wrenching parts. The ending was solid, but still... I could have seen an accidental death or more of a conclusion than what we got.
All in all, this book felt half done or not thought out properly. I wish I could say I enjoyed it, but I didn't. At this time, I do not recommend it. ( )
