About this listen

A gripping, moving story of loss, friendship, the need to belong, inspired by real events, of two orphaned girls and the woman who becomes a surrogate mother to them, only to be separated in the most heart-wrenching way.

Two orphaned girls become found family amidst the horrors of WWII in a gripping and heart-wrenching tale of friendship, loss and survival against the odds which sweeps the listener across wartime Europe to Budapest from the mountains of Scotland.

Inspired by true events and perfect for fans of The Nightingale and The Midwife of Auschwitz, from the author of The Child on Platform One and The Lighthouse Sisters.

Critic reviews

A great read . . . beautiful and evocative . . . an intelligent, thrilling novel, and one which will stay with me for a long time (Louise Morrish, author of Operation Moonlight)
This is a story of amazing courage. Beautifully written, moving and page-turning . . . an extraordinary novel that has stayed with me long after I turned the final page (Carol McGrath, author of The Silken Rose)
A different aspect of the Second World War to any I've read before . . . I found it equally fascinating and shocking, but was transfixed from the first to the last page and I can't recommend it highly enough. A story that was both heartbreaking and compelling, yet ultimately uplifting. I loved it (Deborah Carr, author of The Poppy Field)
