The Sequel to The Amethyst Necklace

Beschreibung

Scarlett's Story is an emotional, gripping historical novel, about one woman's fight to overcome adversity, and the courage, hope and bravery of the resistance fighters in occupied France during WW2. Perfect for fans of Victoria Hislop and Dinah Jeffries.¿ It is the summer of 1918 and the Spanish Flu epidemic hits East Sussex, leaving Scarlett Cunningham an orphan at the age of nine. Determined to escape her roots, Scarlett yearns for a better kind of life, while hiding her strange gift of second sight from the seeing eyes of the world. Scarlett chooses wealth over love when shipping tycoon Eric Johnson offers her a way out of her bleak existence. However, the outbreak of WW2 brings a chance meeting with Eric's son, Frankie. Scarlett recognises the mysterious stranger she so often sees in her dreams, and falls hopelessly in love. As war rages across Europe, Scarlett denies her feelings, sending RAF pilot Frankie away believing she doesn't love him. After completing a mission over the city of Stuttgart, Frankie's Spitfire develops engine trouble on the way back to base and he crashes over enemy-occupied France. While Scarlett waits anxiously for news of Frankie, can the bravery of the resistance fighters save his life in a country where Hitler's spies are everywhere?
