This was a very touching wartime love story.
Chrissie and Fred fall in love while Fred is working on her home island of St. Kilda
But with him serving in the war and ending up behind enemy lines in a prison camp and Chrissie and her family evacuating the island of St. Kilda the pair lose touch but their love lingers on.
Fred Lawson is not even aware he has a daughter.
Unable to forget what they shared that summer Fred desperately tries to find his way back to Chrissie to see if anything can be saved of their former lives.
Harrowing and sadly all too real mirroring lost loves and lives during war this is a heart warming tale of two people who beat the ends to find love and happiness after their worlds have dramatically altered.
Mesmerising in the writing style with a poetic feel to the narrative this was a tender read for those who enjoy a good wartime romance.
