O knihe
It is the end of 1943. The war is, at last, going our way. Churchill has made his speech about it being, perhaps, the end of the beginning and Frank and Alice have great plans for the peace that cannot now be long delayed. Frank will be free to leave the sea and together they can buy the small hotel that has become their dream but, not yet.
Europe is still occupied by the German army and England is full to bursting with young, fit Allied soldiers. The invasion must come soon but, for many tired, frightened and frustrated wives and sweethearts denied the comfort of their loved ones for so long, the temptation is irresistible.
Heartbroken by reports of Alice's infidelity, and as a way to escape from a rapidly re-darkening Europe over which the clouds of a new war are already gathering, Frank emigrates in search of a new life in a new land.
In Canada Frank meets Loretta whose experience of a war-time marriage has been as unhappy as his own. Success, promotion and a promising future in public relations look certain but, when Loretta is murdered by her estranged husband, Frank realises that his new life has been just a desperate attempt to obliterate the past. Losing Loretta determines him to recapture Alice and their dream.
