Shes kept it for 70 years. Shes travelled the world, fallen in love, and grown and changed in ways she never could have imagined. But shes never told a soul.

Until one midsummers night, something happens. Something so terrible and unexpected that it changes everything for Florrie. And perhaps, at last, her long-buried secret will finally see the light of day . . .
