A rebellious daughter 1925. Rosalie Delacroix flees Paris for the bohemian clubs of Malta, a tiny island in the Mediterranean. There, among the ancient walls and winding streets, strangers slip into the shadows and anyone can buy a new name.

A sister with a secret 1944. Running from the brutality of war in France, Florence Baudin faces a new life deep in the Devonshire countryside, England. But her estranged mother makes a desperate request: to find her vanished sister, who went missing years before.

A rift over generations A faded last letter from Rosalie is Florence’s only clue, the war an immovable barrier - and time is running out.
