The Hidden Years

Description:

A story of secrets, loss and betrayal set in Cornwall during World War II and the heady days of the 1960s.

When talented folk musician Gray Robinson persuades Belle to abandon her university studies and follow him to Cornwall, Belle happily agrees even though they’ve only just met. The thought of spending a carefree summer in an off-grid community, with the man she’s falling in love with, is all she can think about.

But being with Gray isn’t the only reason Belle agrees to accompany him to Silverwood House near the beautiful Helford estuary.  Why does she recognise the name Silverwood House?  What is its connection to a photo of her as a baby, taken on a nearby beach?  And who is Imogen Lockhart, a woman who lived at Silverwood many years before?  As the summer unfolds, Belle begins to learn the truth – about secrets from the past that have been kept hidden, but also about the person she wants to be.
