Three seniors Dora, Joe and Geoffrey find their retirement shaken after the approach from a middle age German woman who is searching for answers about what happened on Jersey in the German Occupation. Flicking between the present of 1985 and the war years, we learn how the three are connected, Dora a young midwife, Joe a Catholic priest and Geoffrey an island farmer.
An interesting fictional account of what happened on the island during the war, it was off to a bit of a slow start but half way through the characters became more fully formed and I could understand their story. 4/5

A 'hidden secrets' story can often be quite effective. It sounds like this one was good.
