Publisher's Synopsis
In 1938 Jane Townsend drives to Loire valley to purchase samples of stone to enable her injured father to continue carving. There she meets Henri Bodin and is immediately drawn to him before a family bereavement takes Jane back to Yorkshire. World War II intervenes, leaving Jane to wonder about Henri's fate in occupied France and for her to meet Squadron Leader Adrian Stewart, who becomes a supportive friend. Accompanying him on a covert Mission to France , Jane witnesses a confrontation between Adrian and Henri. When peace returns, only after surviving grief does she find that love has endured as surely as if it were carved into stone.
