One golden summer. One missing treasure. And a secret that binds two lives together.
Every year, Alice's father gives her a treasure. Then on the morning of her sixteenth birthday, her final gift vanishes - along with the fragile certainty of her world. Alice runs, towards New York City and away from the memories of that last summer at the orchard where she grew up.
Across the Atlantic, Tom has always felt that something is missing from his life. When he finds a long-forgotten letter, it leads him away from Sevenstones - the house at the heart of his family for generations - and towards a truth no one has ever fully told.
From post-war London to 1960s New York, Alice and Tom's stories become entwined. But will the secrets of their past bring them together, or break them apart?
