Description
Emily falls passionately in love with working-class Walter, despite fierce opposition from her class-conscious father. She sees marriage as a partnership of equals and resolves to elope to escape such a male-dominated society.
Emily’s actions will see her struggle to survive the subsequent devastation brought about by the war, as she and her four-year-old son are thrown into the midst of danger and death. The family experience rationing and the terror of bombing. Their air raid shelter is destroyed by a direct hit.
When Walter volunteers for the army, Emily and her son are evacuated to a rat-infested cottage in a farming community near Hebden Bridge. The war changes Walter into an efficient army officer who demands to be obeyed. Emily worries that she might have a rival for his affections. How can she restore their loving relationship?
The Girl Who Disappeared is a moving love story about one woman’s enduring resilience, a story full of quiet humor, and surprising twists and turns.
