Official synopsis Publisher
After a stray bomb scored a direct hit on his childhood home in Hertfordshire, the only thing that has kept Francis Brady going while he works day and night salvaging what he can from the rubble is the thought that soon he’ll be joining wartime friends Mayne, Daniel and Victor as electrician in their new dream building firm in Lancashire. But things are not going to plan: Mayne isn’t answering any of his letters; many marriages are breaking up in these times of change, and Francis is loath for his to be one of them … But how can he turn down the opportunity of a new life and career in Rivenshaw? Meanwhile, in Rivenshaw, while clearing out Esherwood house in readiness for the rebuild, Mayne and Judith make a macabre discovery in the old Nissen hut – a body, buried in a shallow grave … With so much going against them, can these four friends ever turn their dreams into reality?
