Description

Summer 1938. Phyllis Forrester returns to England after years abroad, settling into her sister's grand country house. As she becomes embroiled in a world of idealistic beliefs and friendships, the threat of war looms large. A charismatic leader promises to restore England to its former glory, but at a party hosted by her new friends, Phyllis lets her guard down, with devastating consequences. Years later, Phyllis recounts the events that led to her imprisonment, forever changing the course of her life. A subtle and compelling tale of family, social class, and the tensions that simmer beneath the surface of a privileged circle. Wonderfully subtle and evocative, this period drama is beautifully researched and masterfully woven.
