In many ways, my life has been rather like a record of the lost and found. Perhaps all lives are like that. It''s when life started in earnest. Hertfordshire, 1928. The paths of Tom and Alice collide against a haze of youthful, carefree exuberance. And so begins a love story that finds its feet by a lake one silvery moonlit evening.... It''s when there were no happy endings. Paris, 1939. Alice is living in the City of Light, but the pain of the last decade has already left its mark. There''s a shadow creeping across Europe when she and Thomas Stafford - now a world famous artist - find each other once more . . . It''s when the story begins London, 1986. Bequeathed an old portrait from her grandmother, Kate Darling uncovers a legacy that takes her to Corsica, Paris and beyond. And as the secrets of time fall away, a love story as epic as it is life changing slowly reveals itself... Sweeping and heartrending - the perfect listen for fans of Victoria Hislop and Kate Morton.
