FROM THE BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF REBECCA
'It is rather awful, Emma thought as she walked across the fields down to the farm, how this business is leading us all into subterfuge and deception, and we can't really tell who is friend and who is enemy ... '
Emma wakes up one morning to an apocalyptic world. The cosy existence she shares with her grandmother, a famous retired actress has been shattered: there's no telephone, no radio and an American warship sits in the harbour. England has withdrawn from the European Common Market and, on the brink of bankruptcy has decided that salvation lies in a union - political, military and economic - with the United States. Theoretically it is to be an equal partnership, but it soon begins to look like a takeover bid.
As the two women piece together clues about the 'friendly' military occupation on their doorstep; family, friends and neighbours come together to resist the interlopers.

I read this book when it was first published back in the 1970s and was pleased to see it available on Audible. If you didn’t know who’d written it, you’d never guess that the author was Daphne DuMaurier because it’s unlike any of her other work. It’s very dark and disturbing and also quite funny but you do need to accept the misogyny and casual racism of the time. It’s well written, well narrated and all too easy to believe with the current USA president and a floundering UK government. For me, the underlying story is still relevant today.

Of its time but still relevant.
