Summary
In 1955 Josephine Mills’ husband Robbie dies suddenly, leaving her the single parent to four young children. But just weeks after his death a stranger arrives at her door, to tell her that Robbie was murdered, and that he had been working for the intelligence services. It’s a conversation that will change the course of Josephine, and her children’s, whole life forever. John was held prisoner by the Nazis in wartime and he’s still carrying the scars - both physical and mental, and Josephine is happy to care for him. But he brings chaos into her life.
