A moving historical novel about the German occupation of the Channel Islands from the bestselling author of The Poppy Field. While her little sister Rose is sent to the UK to keep her safe from the invading German army, Estelle is left behind on Jersey to help her grandmother run the family farm. When the Germans occupy the island, everything changes and Estelle and the islanders must face the reality of life under Nazi rule. Interspersed with letters from Rose back in London, the novel is also inspired by the real life stories from the author' s own family who were on the island during the occupation and is a true testament to the courage and bravery of the islanders.
Deborah Carr lives on the island of Jersey in the Channel Islands with her husband, two children and three rescue dogs. She became interested in books set in WW1 when researching her grandfather' s time as a cavalryman in the 17th 21st Lancers. She is part of ' The Blonde Plotters' writing group and was Deputy Editor on the online review site, Novelicious. com. Her debut historical romance, Broken Faces, is set in WW1 and was runner-up in the 2012 Good Housekeeping Novel Writing Competition and given a ' special commendation' in the Harry Bowling Prize that year. The Poppy Field is her second historical novel.
