Scottish libraries can Escape to the Shetlands with the worldwide Scottish bestseller Fiona Valpy.

‘An unforgettable novel' EVE CHASE

Two women, decades apart, are torn apart by grief but brought together through hope.

Shetland, 2001: Ruby Reid is running from a decision she doesn’t want to make. Finding herself on a remote croft caring for a mysterious old woman she discovers that Hanna has her own reasons for hiding from the world. Slowly, Hanna reveals her story to Ruby...

Norway, 1940: Hanna Kristiansen’s world is overturned when Norway falls into the hands of Germany.

She’s determined to keep her twin sister, Liv, safe but as Hanna fights for her country, she must make unthinkable personal sacrifices. The war may take everything from her, but ensuring the freedom of her people demands it.

Decades later, Hanna is still haunted by the scars of war that mark her arm. The numbers that will forever signify where one life ended and another began.

But as the two women bond through their shared loss, they learn to find strength in fragility and discover a new hope in the most unlikely of places.
