The Secret Sister

By: Jan Baynham

Narrated by: Deryn Edwards

Wales, 1943. Sara Lewis should be heartbroken when her husband doesn't return from war. But he was never the kind husband she hoped for. And now she's stuck with her cruel mother-in-law on the family farm. Sara must do what is best for her young son. So she leaves the farm for the safety of her sister's home.

Despite herself, she begins to notice Carlo, an Italian prisoner of war. Longing looks soon turn into a connection neither of them can sever. But fraternization is forbidden. As their love grows, so does the danger all around them...

Twenty-five years later, their daughter holds her father's hand as he takes his last breath and whispers a name: Giulietta. The secrets of the past collide as the family are shaken to their very core, forced to revisit memories they'd rather forget to uncover the truth.
