Beyond That, the Sea

by Laura Spence-Ash

Paperback

A tender-hearted love story: the tale of two families living through the Second World War on opposite sides of the Atlantic, and the girl who calls them both her own

As bombs fall over war-torn London, Beatrix's parents make an impossible choice to send their eleven-year-old daughter to wait out the war with another family in America.

Swept up into the Gregorys' affluent lifestyle, Bea soon adapts to life with Mr and Mrs G, and their sons William and Gerald. Distracted and entranced by new traditions, young love and summers on Maine's coast, Bea's old life feels like a distant memory. Until, abruptly, the war ends and she is summoned home to England.

In post-war London Bea tries to move on, but memories of her American family never fully let her go . .

Beyond That, the Sea is a beautifully written, absorbing novel, full of grace and heartache, forgiveness and understanding, loss and love.
