From the acclaimed author of The Apothecary's Daughter comes the next installment in the Spindrift Trilogy, a captivating and evocative family drama that will captivate fans of Santa Montefiore, Lucinda Riley, and Elizabeth Jane Howard's Cazalet Chronicles. Set in 1914, Spindrift House, Cornwall, Edith Fairchild's husband, Benedict, abandoned her when their children were babies. Now, with the children almost grown, Edith and her loyal lover of two decades, Pascal, are planning to leave their beloved Spindrift artists' community and finally be together. However, an explosive encounter between Benedict and Pascal forces old secrets into the light, causing rifts in the happiness and security of the community.

Then, an assassin's bullet fired in faraway Sarajevo sets in motion a chain of events that changes everything. Under the shadow of war, the community struggles to eke out a living. The younger generation enlist or volunteer to support the war effort, facing dangers that seemed unimaginable in the golden summer of 1914. When it's all over, will the Spindrift community survive an unexpected threat? And will Edith and Pascal ever be able to fulfill their dream?
