Description

Isabella lives in London with her mother. She has two brothers. One has chosen to fight in the Spanish Civil War for the Republicans: the other, by contrast, is attracted by Oswald Mosley's increasingly powerful Fascist movement in London. Isabella senses for herself the charismatic power of fascism. As tensions rise in the city, Isabella finds herself drawn into a world of conflicting loyalties and ideologies. Her family's divisions reflect the broader struggle between those who support the Republican cause and those who back the growing fascist movement. This novel explores the complexities of loyalty, identity, and community during a pivotal moment in British history.
