A forbidden love...a private war. There's a sudden scatter of birds in the sky. I flinch. Little things seem violent to me. & in that moment my decision is made. It's 1940, Guernsey. Vivienne de la Mare waits nervously for the bombs to drop. Instead comes quiet surrender & insidious occupation. Nothing is safe anymore. Her husband is fighting on the frontline & the facade of being the perfect wife is cracking. Her new life is one where the enemy lives next door. Small acts of kindness from one Nazi soldier feel like a betrayal. But how can you hate your enemy when you know his name, when he makes you feel alive, when everything else is dying around you? Vivienne is fighting her own private war. On one side, the safe, secret, loving world she could build with her captain; on the other, virtuous loneliness & danger. It's time for Vivienne to choose: collaboration or resistance... Margaret Leroy explores a forbidden friendship in a frightening world. In the darkest hours in history, no choices are simple. ...
