Description
To love someone, need you know everything about them?When Alice and Joseph meet, they fall quickly into a tentative but serious relationship. Both are still young and hopeful of each other, but each brings with them an emotional burden. Alice’s family is full of absences and Joseph harbours an unspeakable secret from his time in the army in Northern Ireland. When Alice’s widowed grandfather begins to tell Joseph about his RAF experiences in 1950s Kenya, something still raw is tapped in Joseph; his reaction to the older man’s unburdening of guilt is both unexpected and devastating for them all.
