From New York Times best-selling author Rhys Bowen comes a haunting book about a girl who braves her father's hidden past to discover his secrets.... In 1944, British bomber pilot Hugo Langley parachuted from his stricken planes in to the verdant fields of German-occupied Tuscany. Badly wounded, he found refuge in a ruined monastery and in the biceps and triceps of Sofia Bartoli. But the love that kindled between them was shaken by an irreversible betrayal. Nearly 30 years later, Hugo's estranged princess, Joanna, has returned home to the British countryside to set up her father's funeral. Among his personal effects can be an unopened letter dealt with to Sofia. In this can be a startling revelation. Still coping with the psychological wounds of her own private trauma, Joanna embarks on a healing voyage to Tuscany to comprehend her father's history - and maybe come to comprehend herself as well. Joanna soon discovers that some would prefer the past be left undisturbed, but she has come too much to let go of her father's secrets now.... Cover design by Shasti O'Leary Soudant
