Summary

A warmhearted and nostalgic festive family saga. Will Tilly finally find a family to call her own?

As Christmas grows nearer, Tilly, a young maid, is sent away from her home in London to care for a sick child in an old cottage on the Isle of Sheppey, and she little imagines how her life will change....

Having settled in with her new family, Tilly dares to believe that the happiness she's longed for could be hers at last and that she might finally be free from the secrets of her past. But tragedy strikes, and Tilly is forced to return to London, leaving the cottage under the sea wall - and her new life - behind.

As war approaches and new challenges arise, will Tilly be able to overcome her struggles and find her way home?

Story could have benefited from editing secret revealed way too soon

X I rarely give up on a book but almost gave up on this one. The story was pretty slow moving and the secret was revealed much too soon.. having said that the narrator was very good and made the best of what was a mediocre story
