A New York Times Bestselling Author.It is 1939. Lavender - La to her friends -- flees London to escape both the German bombs and the memories of her shattered marriage. The peace and solitude of small-town life are therapeutic at first. But as the war drags on, in need of some diversion and to boost the town's morale, La organizes an amateur orchestra. Among the musicians she recruits is Felix, a shy, proper Polish refugee who becomes the object of feelings she thought she'd put away forever.
