A powerful and moving wartime romance. World War II has separated Isobel Johnson from her Halifax friends and her career in fashion. Yearning to return to her hometown, the last thing she wants is to inherit Laneside House, a dilapidated property on the Yorkshire moors. Only her great-grandfather's letter written originally from the Tower of London persuades her to restore the house while unearthing its history. When the task proves overwhelming, Isobel turns to Daniel Armstrong, but not before becoming intrigued by Gustav Kassel, the German pilot once aided by her great-aunt. After Gustav disappears and the house takes over her life, Isobel finds former friendships altering while Daniel remains constant. He gives support when tragedy strikes, and it seems their future should be together. But will Daniel's love for his own home prevent his settling in Isobel's? Will she be obliged to live forever alone in Laneside House? Or dare she hope that her dream of finding true happiness there might be fulfilled?
