About this listen
1943 - Twins Adele and Amelia join the Women’s Royal Naval Service, keen to play their part in the war with Germany. Separated for the first time, Adele is sent to Dorset where she witnesses firsthand the full horrors of the disaster-struck dress rehearsal for D-Day at Slapton Sands, while Amelia is stationed near their grandmother’s home in Cornwall as a driver. As the war in Europe draws to its conclusion, one twin’s reckless act of betrayal will divide them forever.
2015 - On Cape Cod after hearing her great-grandfather’s last word, chef Lara begins a journey of discovery across the Atlantic to Cornwall. There she begins to piece together her past, secrets long hidden rise and the wartime betrayal still echoes across the generations…
Praise for The Returning Tide:

“A heart-tugging story of loss and recovery” - Woman & Home
