Overview

"The maelstrom of the Second World War takes a heavy toll on young Jennifer Veryan's family. Her mother succumbs to the wartime terrors of occupied France. Her father vanishes to faraway Singapore. Jennie is left with but one constant in her life, her father's house." "Trevellan, her family's ancestral Cornish home, comes to represent all that is good and safe in Jennie's fractured life. There she grows beautiful and strong under the stern watch of the extended Veryan family. Mark Curnow, the land agent's son, offers her comfort in her loneliness. Their love is one her family will work diligently to thwart. Only the mystery surrounding her father's fate is strong enough to pull Jennie from Trevellan. In 1950 her quest takes her to Singapore, where she is rocked by the revelation of a secret so shameful, it threatens to forever exile her from her father's house."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
