Their arrival has divided the island's community. Nerves frayed from three years of war and the constant threat of invasion, many locals fear the enemy prisoners and do not want them there. Where their neighbors see bloodthirsty enemies, however, orphaned sisters Dorothy and Constance see sick and wounded men unused to the freezing cold of an Orkney winter, and volunteer to nurse them. While doing so Dorothy finds herself immediately drawn to Cesare, a young man broken by the horrors of battle. But as the war drags on, tensions between the islanders and the outsiders deepen, and Dorothy's connection to Cesare threatens the bond she shares with Constance. Since the loss of their parents, the sisters have relied on each other. Now, their loyalty will be tested, each forced to weigh duty against desire . . . until, one fateful evening, a choice must be made, one that that will have devastating consequences.--   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Copy Status   CLOSED TEMPORARILY: Honokaa Public Library Adult Fiction Lea Historical Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kailua Public Library Adult Fiction Lea   Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kapaa Public Library Adult Fiction Lea   Checked In Add Copy to MyList Koloa P/S Library Adult Fiction Lea   Checked In Add Copy to MyList Manoa Public Library Adult Fiction Lea   Checked In Add Copy to MyList Mountain View P/S Library Adult Fiction Lea   Checked In Add Copy to MyList Wailuku Public Library Adult Fiction Lea   Checked In Add Copy to MyList Waipahu Public Library Adult Fiction Lea   Checked In Add Copy to MyList
