About this listen
‘A story of love, loss, sacrifice and bravery. After this stunning debut, I can't wait to see what Corin writes next!’ Kathleen McGurl, author of The Girl from Bletchley Park
A wartime secret. A journey to uncover the truth.
Claire has always had a special bond with her aunt Margaret, but she’s astonished when Margaret suddenly begins talking about a friend called Agnes, who Margaret met working as a WAAF in World War 2 – a past Claire had no idea about. Margaret and Agnes were best friends until Agnes started acting strangely, becoming secretive and distant. Then one morning, Agnes vanished and never returned home, leaving Margaret distraught.
Claire promises to delve back into the past and help discover what happened to Agnes. But Margaret’s memory is rapidly deteriorating, and apart from an old photograph of the two women, Agnes seems to have disappeared into thin air. Can Claire uncover Agnes’ story before it’s too late?
An utterly heart-wrenching novel about love, loss and sacrifice, perfect for fans of Fiona Valpy, Lorna Cook and Kathryn Hughes.

Too many coincidences
A little irritating to listen to. Some strange voices used! I found there to be too many unlikely coincidences and peoples doziness to be honest.

lovely story of love and loss
I really enjoyed this war time story from this new Author, being her first book. Well researched and a good storyline. I fell in love with all the characters. I liked the jump back and forth in time throughout, and it kept me guessing where the story was going. Very moving story of love and loss. I think the narrator did a great job.

Found the story rather boring to be honest, too focused on the same sex relationship between Margaret and Agnes. The narrator also made this excruciating to listen to with her attempt at accents. Agnes sounded more Dutch than French, the archivist sounded constipated. Wish I’d not wasted £7.99 on this trite novel
