Publisher's Summary

We’ll meet again....

When Ali inherits her great-aunt’s house, she immediately moves her whole family in, despite the warnings that there is something strange about the place.

Unfazed, Ali begins redecorating, going through the rooms, making each one her own with the help of her daughter, Kelly. But when under the wallpaper in Kelly’s new room they discover a scrawled message from 1944, Ali begins to question the history of the house as she knows it.

Her family has always seemed so picture perfect, not a blemish or a secret to be found. Yet, this discovery throws her into confusion, and Ali begins to question exactly what she knows about her family and the mysteries they have kept hidden....

Perfect for fans of The Emerald Comb, Rachel Hore and Kate Morton.

Very sad story

If you want some uplifting story, this isn’t it. It is a very good book but certainly sad right from the start. The narrator is excellent and for me her reading about the times jack and Joan were together made it incredibly real for me. The characters were believable and likeable depicting life in the forties and fifties for young women accurately.
Liked everyone except Jones father but I’m sure no one would have liked him. I would recommend this book.
