概要
A long-buried secret, a heart-breaking betrayal...
Estelle never really knew her mother, Fleur, but is haunted by her legacy. A legendary resistance heroine in the Great War, she had helped Allied soldiers escape from Belgium - and was not alone in paying a terrible price.
Christa's father was one of those Fleur saved - but he returned home a ruined man. So, when Estelle arrives on Christa's doorstep hungry for information about her mother, an intense and complex friendship is ignited.
In 1939, as conflict grips Europe once more, Estelle follows her mother's destiny. Then Christa discovers that Fleur was betrayed by someone close to her and the truth may destroy them all...

批評家のレビュー
Intense and emotional, The Hour of Separation takes us deep into the shadows cast by violence and conflict. Terrific (Elizabeth Buchan)
An epic yet heartbreakingly intimate novel of conflict and betrayal, and of the pain of lost love
It's a beautifully unfolded story about two women in World War Two who are united by a secret that dates back to the previous war. It kept me guessing to the end (Wendy Moore)
