About this listen

When Ellie Roberts inherits a cottage on a remote Scilly Isle, she's shocked. She's never heard of the previous owner, Patience Ellis, so why did she leave Ellie her legacy?

Overwhelmed with unanswered questions, Ellie travels to the isolated island. The house feels strangely familiar, and she has a memory of her beloved mother in the window seat overlooking the sea...

The mother she lost when she was only a child. Determined to find out more, Ellie meets enigmatic local Branok Shore. When Branok prises open Patience's dresser, filled with letters from the Second World War, Ellie discovers something that will change her own life forever.

The letters tell the story of a brutal storm in the depths of war, and of an injured soldier who begged Patience for help, and asked her to make an impossible choice...

I loved the story, found the accents a bit 'too' regional (I can say that coming from a Regional area) which is a shame, it shouldn't but did distract from the intelligence of the characters.

Beautifully written
