Romance Historical
Recently bereaved, and encouraged by family and friends,
Harriet decides to open her home to paying guests.
Although
successful, her business plans come to an abrupt halt at
the start of WW1 as each of her grown up family play their
part. Grateful for their company, her daughter Sarah and
daughter–in–law Hannah move back home with
their children. Letters bring long awaited news as son
Jack
joins the aircraft carrier Ben my Chree in Turkey and to
his dismay his twin brother Tom finds himself in India.
Surprisingly, Sarah s husband Anthony learns to fly and is
the only member of the family to experience the horrors of
France. This leaves Harriet s eldest son Ernest remaining
in Woolston, working as a foreman at the recently opened
Supermarine factory, building flying boats vital for the
war effort. In fact, it s not long before Hannah and Sarah
join him, to the dismay of Harriet and their husbands. As
this saga unfolds, telling the story of Harriet s family s
struggle through the war, two people keep her sane, her
best friend Jane and her childhood sweetheart Edward, but
the underpinning presence of Riduna, (Alderney) the island
of Harriet s birth is forever drawing her home.
