A brilliantly told story of children evacuated by sea to Canada during WW2, the sinking off their ship by torpedo, taking to lifeboats and eventual rescue andthe scars it left during their adult life. The story follows three very different children who survived and follows events from the perspective of two of them, Arthur and Dora, as their paths cross during their very different adult lives and the impact of Arthur's younger brother's death in the Atlantic. Highly recommended. ( ) sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
An RNA Romantic Novel of the Year Award nominee. In the autumn of 1940, four children meet on a train. Behind them is London, under heavy aerial attack; ahead of them is a ship bound for the safe shores of Canada. Arthur has promised his mother not to let his little brother, Philip, out of his sight. Pippa and Dora are on their own: polar opposites, brought together by the adventure of a lifetime. But disaster strikes mid-Atlantic, and in the chaos one of the children makes a choice that will determine the course of their lives forever. As the years pass and the survivors become adults--forging their futures and falling in love--they are still haunted by the events of that night at sea. It's not just what was lost that darkens their lives: what was rescued casts a long shadow, too. One of them has a terrible secret that they thought sank with the ship. But a secret is just a truth waiting to be revealed, and this secret could shatter everything. No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |
