  Following a string of disastrous house-sitting assignments, and an equally troubled personal life, Thea Osborne is understandably apprehensive about her latest commission: a wintry month in an isolated house with only an assortment of animals, including her loyal spaniel Hepzie, for company. With the summer lushness of the Cotswolds turned icy grey, Thea spends her first few days exploring the beautiful hamlet of Hampnett, meeting some of the locals. But then the weather turns extreme, and so do events. When she stumbles across a man lying dead in a snow-covered field, Thea finds herself once again at the heart of a mystery.

  It is Summer 1914 and Tilly Moon, an accomplished pianist, longs for the day she can take her music studies further. If there is one thing she loves more than music, it is her brother Tommy's best friend Dominic, and luckily he feels the same. They embark on a tentative first romance, but, on 4th August 1914, their plans for the future are interrupted when Britain declares war on Germany. Dominic and Tommy are quick to enlist, eager to play their part in the defence of the country they love. Tilly herself gives up her music to train as a nurse, helping to heal those that have suffered most in the unforgiving conflict. But while she throws herself into her new role, her heart and mind remain fixed on Dominic. Will Dominic return to her as promised and fulfil their engagement?
