In his fiction debut, celebrated WWII historian James Holland offers a poignant exploration of the impact of war on a British family and their village of Alvesdon, set against the backdrop of the looming conflict in 1939. As Britain declares war on Germany, three generations of the Castells face the profound changes wrought by the impending turmoil, with younger family members heading off to fight while those at home struggle to maintain their rural existence. Spanning from the tranquil summer of 1939 to the intense Battle of Britain, this novel intricately weaves themes of resilience and community amid the chaos of war.
