In her seaside cottage, Beatrix Abberley bravely confronts an intruder moments before her life is brutally taken. The crime stuns the elderly spinster' s family - especially Beatrix' s niece, Charlotte Ladram. But Charlotte has little time to mourn the loss of her beloved aunt and little patience when police quickly arrest a man Charlotte believes is innocent. For Charlotte, a harrowing quest for answers begins - one that will take her into the shadows of the past... and into the life and secrets of the dead woman' s brother, famed poet and casualty of the Spanish Civil War, Tristram Abberley. Now, amid shattering revelations about her family, and in the aftermath of a second savage crime, Charlotte finds herself at the center of a widening storm. And for Charlotte, something extraordinary is beginning to happen. As fifty years of secrets begin to unravel, shy, cautious Charlotte is coming alive in the shadow of a mystery - uncovering a shocking tale of wartime greed and treachery, and a vendetta of violence seemingly without end...
