About this listen

 From the No 1 bestselling author of the Ruth Galloway Mysteries, a warm-hearted, multi-generational saga of family secrets for fans of Santa Montefiore and Lucinda Riley. Sometimes you must revisit the past in order to move forward.

'A FASCINATING ACCOUNT OF ITALIAN LIFE, WRITTEN WITH SKILL AND INSIGHT' Katie Fforde

Sophie is only a quarter Italian. But that quarter comes from her charismatic grandfather Cesare, and he has instilled in her a great love of her Italian heritage. So when a journalist starts to investigate Cesare's wartime record, Sophie is reluctant to question just how proud she should really be.

She embarks upon a journey into the past which takes her from nineteenth-century Naples to London's Italian quarter and one of World War 2's forgotten tragedies. And along the way she also learns something very important about herself ...©2018 Domenica De Rosa (P)2018 Quercus Editions Limited 20th Century Fiction Genre Fiction Historical Historical Fiction Romance Italy War

Critic reviews

"A fascinating account of Italian life, written with skill and insight." (Katie Fforde)
All stars

It went on and on back and forth and nothing was really established. Sofia slept with several men on a whim never sure who she wanted or why she was doing it. I love Ellie Griffiths and had really enjoyed the previous De Rosa book but this one was definitely not for me.

Thats a number of hours I’ll never get back
