The French House

Left profoundly deaf after an accident Émile is no stranger to isolation - or heartbreak. Now as Nazi planes loom over Guernsey he senses life is about to change forever. Trapped in a tense fearful marriage Isabelle doesn't know what has become of Émile and the future she hoped for. But when she glimpses him from the window of the French House their lives collide once more. Lieutenant Schreiber is more comfortable wielding a paintbrush than a pistol. But he has little choice in the role he is forced to play in the occupying forces - or in his own forbidden desires. As their paths entwine loyalties are blurred and dangerous secrets forged. But on an island under occupation courage can have deadly consequences . . .
