My mother kept me. But she let my only sister go...áFlora has fled from her broken marriage to take care of her sick mother, in an isolated farmhouse with ice on its windows. She is shaken by her motherâÇÖs pale worn face and is determined to make her feel safe and looked after. But as she draws heavy curtains and lights fires, she makes a shocking discovery. Hidden at the bottom of a drawer lies a crumpled photo of a smiling baby girl she doesnâÇÖt recognise. A photo her mother refuses to talk about...áAs Flora delves into the story behind her motherâÇÖs secret photograph, begging her for details, she is devastated to uncover a hidden teenage love affair, a dark betrayal and two little girls tragically split apart. FloraâÇÖs childhood was lonely and quiet, and she is shocked to learn things should have been very different.áAs the world Flora knows crumbles around her ears, she is rescued from darkness by Joseph, a man she has never met, who has travelled from his far-away home above a sapphire cove in the Philippines. As they sip tea at FloraâÇÖs battered kitchen table Joseph begs Flora for her help. The baby in the picture is someone from FloraâÇÖs past, and she is dying.áWith the clock ticking, Flora boards a plane, desperate to meet the girl from the photograph. But nobody gets to decide who dies and who stays alive. Will she arrive in time, or is she too late to find out why two innocent little girls were forced to live on opposite sides of the world? And will finding the truth about her real family free her from the pain of her past?áA heartbreaking and emotional read about love, letting go and a family torn apart in the saddest of circumstances.
