Historia
For Iris, each visit to her mother in St Mabon’s Cove, Cornwall has been the same—a serene escape from the city. But today, as she breaths in the salt air on the doorstep of her beloved childhood home, a heavy weight of anticipation settles over her. Iris knows she’s adopted, but any questions about where she came from have always been shut down by her parents, who can’t bear to revisit the past. Now, Iris can’t stop thinking about what she’s read on the official paperwork: BABY GIRL, FRANCE, 1939 – the year war was declared with Nazi Germany.

Paris, 1944. “Traitor!” yells the crowd as they push me down onto a stool. “Nazi collaborator.” Tears blur my vision as the razor grazes my scalp, waves of blonde hair falling to the ground. As men paint a swastika across my face, I hold onto one small glimmer of hope. They have no idea who I am.

Resumen del Editor
Tuscany, 1944. As Cara runs into the grand entrance hall of the Villa Rosa, she flies to a stop. There is a gun pointing straight at her head, a Nazi staring down at her from the steps above. But even as her heart thumps so loudly she is sure it will jump out of her chest, she keeps smiling, desperately hoping that he won’t spot the precious diary she has hidden under her shirt. Because if he does, it’s not just her life at stake....
Years later, American chef Annie arrives in the tiny village in Tuscany. She is utterly heartbroken by her beloved father’s death, and his earth-shattering revelation that she was adopted. Why did he never tell her the truth? She clutches his last gift—two ancient brass keys—and directions to the stunning Villa Rosa. As she climbs through the steeply ascending hill gardens covered in fruit trees, she wonders if the peach-colored walls of the magnificent house are hiding the answers her father couldn’t bear to tell her.
Annie quickly falls in love with the crumbling villa, and with the handsome gardener, Luca, whose eyes sparkle as bright as the Tuscan sun. Searching for any clues about her past, they discover a musty diary from 1944 hidden away in the basement of an old bookstore, written by Cara Cartazzo, the wartime secretary at the villa. Back inside the Villa Rosa’s haunting main bedroom, Annie can barely breathe as she opens the first, yellowing page....
Her heart begins to race when she finds an entry about a baby, born in the villa at the end of the war. But Annie is devastated when she sees that crucial pages have been torn out. Annie and Luca try to discover more from the villagers, but no one dares speak about the Villa Rosa’s past. What happened there all those years ago? What did Cara have to hide?
Annie is certain the key to her past lies with finding the missing child—but when she discovers the truth, will she be strong enough to face who she really is at last?
An utterly gripping, sweeping pause-resister that will transport you to the olive groves of Tuscany. With a truly heartbreaking family secret from World War Two at its heart, fans of Kathryn Hughes, Fiona Valpy and Victoria Hislop will be enchanted.

Historia
Paris, 1944. “Traitor!” yells the crowd as they push me down onto a stool. “Nazi collaborator.” Tears blur my vision as the razor grazes my scalp, waves of blonde hair falling to the ground. As men paint a swastika across my face, I hold onto one small glimmer of hope. They have no idea who I am.

Historia
Anna is distraught when her beloved mother, Ines, passes away. She inherits a box of papers, handwritten in Italian and yellowed with age, and a tantalizing promise that the truth about what happened during the war lies within. The diaries lead Anna to the small village of Rofelle, where she slowly starts to heal as she explores sun-kissed olive groves, and pieces together her mother’s past: happy days spent herding sheep across Tuscan meadows cruelly interrupted when World War Two erupted and the Nazis arrived....

Mispronunciations Abound
First, the story has much potential. But Annie, the protagonist, seems a bit unrealistic and a bit whiny. Add to this a seemingly inexperienced narrator, who can’t pronounce Italian words well (pensione, pasta!!!!, buon giorno) and frustratingly even English words and you have a level of listening frustration that takes away from the story. She, like the character, is whiny with almost every character.
As I said, the story has potential with a few tweaks to Annie and even Cara.

Good clean story in beautiful Tuscany Italy
The Italians have such love for family and country and a joy of living . They seemed to be fierce partisans against the nazis. Even the women took active roles at times of need . It was a good story . But I’m surprised that a native English language narrator mispronounced some simple words .but I’ll continue to read this author like I have in the past

Good story
Narrator was monotone with repetitive speech patterns which interferes with a higher rating for an enjoyable story

Goid story but choppy naration
The story was very good as I love stories about WW2 and Italy
The naration was choppy at times and there were lots of pauses
But did enjoy the book
