THE LAST TRAIN FROM PARIS IBD

Sinopsis

For Iris, each visit to her mother in St MabonâÇÖs 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 sheâÇÖs adopted, but any questions about where she came from have always been shut down by her parents, who canâÇÖt bear to revisit the past.áNow, Iris canâÇÖt stop thinking about what sheâÇÖs read on the official paperwork: BABY GIRL, FRANCE, 1939 - the year war was declared with Nazi Germany.áWhen Iris confronts her mother, she hits the same wall of pain and resistance as whenever she mentions the war. That is, until her mother tearfully hands her an old tin of letters, tucked neatly beside a delicate piece of ivory wool.áRetreating to the loft, Iris steels herself to at last learn the truth, however painful it might be. But, as she peels back each layer of history before her, a sensation of dread grows inside her. The past is calling, and its secrets are more intricate and tangled than Iris could ever have imagined.áThe year is 1939, and in Paris, France a young woman is about to commit a terrible betrayal... ááA beautifully written and addictively compelling historical novel about the terrible choices ordinary people were forced to make in the horrors of World War Two.
