General Fiction

Domenica Cabrelli had two great loves of her life. First, her childhood sweetheart, from the small, sun-drenched Italian town of Viareggio. A romance that was over before it had a chance to begin. Then, on an wartime French coastline, her second love affair - a mysterious captain, with a future on the front line.

Decades later, Domenica's daughter, Matelda, unpacks her mother's legacy, and realises there is much Domenica left untold. About what kept her away from Italy for so long. What ultimately brought her home again. And the secret that that bound her two great loves together . .
