Summary

Southern England, 1982

At 25, single, and under threat of redundancy from her job in a local library, Emily feels as though her life is going nowhere—until the day when Carl comes into the library asking for books about tracing family history.

Carl is baffled by a mystery about his late grandfather: why is the name by which Carl had always known him different from the name on his old passport?Fascinated as much by Carl himself as by the puzzle he wants to solve, Emily tries to help him find the answers. As their relationship develops, their quest for the truth takes them along a complicated paper-trail which leads, eventually, to the battlefields of the Great War.

In the meantime, Emily discovers that her own family also has its fair share of secrets and lies. And old sins can still cast long shadows...Can Emily finally lay the ghosts of the past to rest and look forward to a brighter future?"
