Alexander, the Russian captive who survived the sinking of prisoner ship the Rigel and found himself in Ingrid's arms in White Shadow, attempted to cross the mountains to Sweden, and now Ingrid follows in his footsteps, carrying their child in her arms, the girl's dark eyes the only proof that she ever knew him. Along the way, Ingrid encounters collaborators and partisans, refugees and deserters, sinners and slaves in a country that still bears the scars of defeat and occupation--and before her journey's end, she'll be forced to ask herself how well she knows the man she is risking everything to find."--

"No-one can be alone on an island . . . But Ingrid is alone on Barrøy, the island that bears her name, and the war of her childhood has been replaced by a new, more terrible present: Norway is under the Nazi boot. When the bodies from a bombed battleship begin to wash up on the shore, Ingrid can't know that one will be alive, and warm enough to erase a lifetime of loneliness - nor can she imagine what suffering she will endure in protecting her lover, and the subsequent journey she will face, wrenched from her island once more, to return home. Or that, in the midst of the horrors of battle, among refugees fleeing famine and scorched earth, she'll be given a gift, the value of which is beyond measure."--
