Discover the gorgeously addictive story of love and betrayal in the compelling bestseller from Elizabeth Buchan

'A gripping, immensely satisfying novel with a twist in the tale' Red

'Wrapped in the roots of the sycamore was a skeleton; the remains of a woman, between twenty-five and thirty. She had carried a child... '

At the close of the Second World War, Intelligence Officer Gus Clifton returns to London.

On his arm is Krista, the German wife he married secretly in Berlin.

For his two sisters, this broken woman is nothing more than the enemy. For Nella, Gus's loyal fiancée, it is a terrible betrayal. As the three women wonder what hold Krista has over decent, honourable Gus, they begin to ask themselves:

How far will they have to go to permanently get her out of their home, their future, their England?

'I loved this story of post-war adjustment which sets up a mystery on the first page' Cathy Rentzenbrink, Stylist

'So so good. Great writing, great story. I could not put it down' Marian Keyes
