It follows the lives of the Ingham and Swann families from 1938-1945. As with the previous novels in this series, Ms. Bradford reminds her readers of previous events. So, if you have not read the previous books in this series, or read them out of order, you will not find yourself lost because of missing information. This was probably the most emotional book in the series, due to the timeframe. However, it's very well written and does a tremendous job of explaining and describing this time in our history. I'm looking forward to reading the next book in this series, "The Cavendon Secrets". ( ) After finishing this book, I think this may not be a trilogy but an actual series. I've blown through the first three and I'll say now that I want to read what comes next so if there's to be another... when will it be available?! Also, I think it's possible that future books could do with family trees as there are so very many characters to keep track of and the characters often have dialogue to remind the reader about relationships, which feels unnatural. I very much enjoyed how not just the Cavendon women but even the women of the villages and collectively as the WI and Land Army girls were well represented. It was nice to know that not just Inghams and Swanns "stand up to be counted" and in difficult times "got on with it". With WWII taking place, all the ladies seemed to be at their best. I was most intrigued with Deidre's contributions and was most satisfied with her story overall. I still pine for an Ingham woman to officially go over to the Swann side. I'm so upset my favorite character was mostly absent in this book (until the 95% mark) & then when finally present was summarily and without much preamble, dispatched. But points to the author for breaking that Happily Ever After thing that the first two books had in spades. I'm upset but I respect that turn of events. I liked the inclusion of Clark Gable quite a lot. Also, as I'd never read Barbara Taylor Bradford's Harte books, I wasn't familiar with Emma but her inclusion here makes me want to read those. Another recommendation. Reader, take it along on vacay this summer. I received a free copy of this book from the publisher in exchange for my honest review. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
