There he meets a beautiful young woman called Marie. As the storm rages outside, she explains how war destroyed her home and her family. Marie's story touches Freddie, but when he wakes the next morning, she has gone. Waiting for his car to be mended, he decides to explore the mountains where Marie's family took refuge. But buried in the cave he finds a secret older and more shocking than anything he could have imagined...By turns thrilling, poignant and haunting, this is a story of two lives touched by war and transformed by courage.
