She fled Poland as a child. She thought Anglesey would keep her safe. She was wrong.
Lauren Bucievski has spent seven years hiding. A remote bay on the west coast of Wales. A quiet life built on silence and watchfulness. A past she has never been able to outrun. Then two men arrive and her careful world begins to fracture. Jimmy Jilkes is a circus runaway turned door to door salesman, warm and easy and full of laughter, the kind of love Lauren has never let herself want. Stefan arrives from Poland, charismatic and possibly dangerous, carrying secrets that reach back to the night her father dragged her into the dark. She cannot have both. She may not survive either. And when 1914 sets the world on fire, the choice is made for her. Moving from the windswept desolation of Church Bay to the unrelenting horror of the Somme and Flanders, The Exile's Daughter is a story of love under impossible pressure, loyalty tested to breaking point, and the weight of a past that refuses to stay buried. For readers of Sebastian Faulks, Kate Mosse and Rosamund Pilcher. The Exile's Daughter is part of The Anglesey Collection.
