Overview: Cornwall, England, 1941. Gazing at the coiled barbed wire and danger signs on this once-beautiful beach, Maddie suddenly hears a frightened little cry. Her heart pounding, she races down the dunes, but knows she will never reach the child in time…
A heartbreaking World War Two story, about a young woman in love who must make an impossible decision. Perfect for fans of Diney Costeloe and Lisa Wingate.
Twenty-three-year old Maddie Brady is proud to do her bit for the British Army. Driving along the winding roads of the Cornish coast one day she sees a little boy trapped among landmines: and is overcome with relief when a brave soul ahead of her rescues him. But thanking the man, Maddie realises he is German… Why would an escaped German prisoner of war rescue an English boy?
Although she must report Rudi immediately, night falls and Maddie is stranded in the blackout. As bomber planes fly ahead, Rudi says his fellow Germans at the prison camp tried to kill him for not believing in the Nazi cause. He barely escaped with his life. Maddie is torn in two: Rudi is a good man, but loyalty to her country demands she hand him in.
Gazing into Rudi’s honest blue eyes, Maddie can’t help but find comfort. And when Rudi is gone the next morning, leaving behind only a photo of himself smiling in happier days, Maddie feels her heart crack open.
But the idea of never seeing Rudi again is just the beginning of Maddie’s pain. As the Blitz rains down, Maddie will face more danger than ever. And when Maddie’s secret about Rudi threatens to come to light, will it destroy everything she’s fought for? Or does she have the bravery to get through the war – and could their love, somehow, survive the impossible?
