About this listen

An utterly heartbreaking and beautifully uplifting story of forbidden love, wartime secrets and the healing power of friendship. Perfect for fans of Kristin Hannah, Faith Hogan and Fiona Valpy!

On a quiet bridge where memories linger, hearts begin to heal...

1992 Elisavet, a Serbian refugee haunted by loss, finds work on Island Farm Avenue. There, three older women – Cora, Megan, and Gladdie – meet regularly on the old footbridge, a quiet place where stories are shared and wounds are gently laid bare. As they begin to open up about their memories, Elisavet is drawn into their past and the healing power of female friendship.

1944 During the war, a young Cora forms a forbidden bond with Frank, a German prisoner held at Island Farm Camp. A fleeting smile. A folded paper aeroplane. A love that defies the rules of a broken world. But as their connection deepens, Cora must choose between her heart and the hostile judgment of a war-weary town.

As Elisavet pieces together the intertwined pasts of these three extraordinary women, she uncovers a story of resilience, love, and the kind of friendship that builds bridges across time.
