Description
A lost love in Cornwall, on the eve of the First World War, eighteen-year-old Kit Rivers has a bright future ahead. As the Lord of the Manor's heir, Kit knows his duty is to the family estate - even though he longs to become a poet. When he falls passionately in love, Kit is determined not to let his parents' bitter opposition spoil an idyllic summer. But even before the golden days can fade into autumn, war comes to change Kit's world and writing forever. One century later, widowed Chloe Pencarrow exchanges London for the solitude of a Cornish cliff top house. Haunted by memories, Chloe’s interest in obscure war poet, Kit Rivers, proves a welcome distraction and leads her to piece together a forgotten history. Faced with more questions than answers, her own life soon becomes entwined with Kit's through love, loss, and the darkest of secrets.
