Summary: London, 1914. World War I looms on the horizon, women are fighting for the right to vote, and explorers are pushing the limits of endurance in the most forbidding corners of the earth. In this volatile time live three exceptional people. Seamus Finnegan and Max von Brandt both loved Willa Alden, and both men lost her. Neither expects to ever see her again, but when a catastrophic event calls Willa home to London, expectations are smashed, promises broken, and none of the three will ever be the same. As the last golden days of the summer of 1914 give way to the gathering clouds of war, Willa, Seamus and Max find their lives forever intertwined in a lethal web of forbidden loves, hidden loyalties, and dangerous lies.
