‘Kristin Harmel is firmly in the top echelon of WW2 storytellers’ HEATHER MORRIS
‘A master storyteller’ SANTA MONTEFIORE
Some secrets echo through time
Emily Emerson is used to being alone; her dad walked out on the family when she was a just a kid, her mum died when she was eighteen, and her beloved grandmother has just passed away as well. But when she’s made redundant from her reporting job, she finds herself completely adrift, until the day she receives a beautiful painting of a young woman standing at the edge of a sugarcane field under a violet sky. She recognises the woman as her grandmother, but the painting arrived with no identification other than a handwritten note saying, \”He never stopped loving her. . .\”
Curious, Emily begins to do some digging and uncovers a fascinating moment in American history. Her trail leads her to the POW internment camps of 1940s Florida, where German prisoners worked for American farmers – and sometimes fell in love with American women. But how does this all connect to the painting? The answer to that question will take Emily on a road that leads from the sweltering Everglades to Munich, Germany and back before she’s done.
What secrets will Emily uncover about her family, and how will this change her future?
From New York Times bestselling author Kristin Harmel, a beautifully repackaged and updated edition of WHEN WE MEET AGAIN which has been refreshed by the author and contains a new author’s note, along with a teaser of Harmel’s next historical novel.
