    About this audiobook

    High in the hills of Valencia, a forgotten house guards its secrets. Emma Temple is the first to unlock its doors in seventy years and it seems like the perfect retreat. But for her grandmother, Freya, a nurse who stayed here during Spain's devastating civil war, the house evokes terrible memories. Emma is drawn deeper into Freya's story: one of crushed idealism, lost love, and families ripped apart by war.
