'Unforgettable' - ROSAMUND LUPTON
Virginia Wrathmell has always known she will meet her death on the marsh.
One snowy New Year's Eve, at the age of eighty-six, Virginia feels the time has finally come.
New Year's Eve, 1939. Virginia is ten, an orphan arriving to meet her new parents at their mysterious house, Salt Winds. Her new home sits on the edge of a vast marsh, a beautiful but dangerous place. War feels far away out here amongst the birds and shifting sands - until the day a German fighter plane crashes into the marsh. The people at Salt Winds are the only ones to see it.
What happens next is something Virginia will regret for the next seventy-five years, and which will change the whole course of her life.
Ideal for readers interested in historical fiction.
