When the telegram arrived on a bright sunny day in 1942, Nancy felt sick with dread. But instead of wartime bad news it was from the legendary Jackie Coltrane, asking her to fly for Great Britain. For Nancy, a girl with flying in her blood, it was an opportunity she simply couldn't refuse. But that fateful decision was to trigger a series of events, with consequences that reverberate through the generations.
In summer 2006, Sarah is at a crossroads in her life when her adored grandmother, Nancy, asks her to help lay the ghosts of her past to rest. Sarah agrees, little suspecting the long-buried and shocking secrets that will be dragged to the surface. From the high drama of World War Two right up to the present day, this is a sweeping family drama that is both moving and unforgettable.'A tale of love, family and secrets... The sheer sadness of it all is sometimes overwhelming. A real page turner' - News of the World
