The Shadow Child

July 1914: the eve of the First World War.

Alix Gregory is holidaying in France with her wealthy Lanchbury relations. When two-year-old Charlie disappears during a family picnic, Alex is blamed. Through marriage and the birth of her son, Alix rediscovers happiness, but she remains haunted by the loss of her baby cousin. As the world descends into the horrors of war once more, the question remains: will Charlie Lanchbury ever be found?
