The Great War is ending, but it has taken Ivy’s son. Ivy is consumed by discovering what happened to her boy out there in the trenches, while her husband only wants to forget.
Then a man comes back into Ivy’s life who can help her find out. A man who once stole Ivy’s heart. A man who also lost his son to a tragedy. A man whose name she hasn’t spoken in thirty years.
As Ivy questions her part in the fire at Polneath House, she unlocks a secret that’s been burning ever since. But will the truth destroy her — or set her free?
The Key In The Lock by Beth Underdown is published in paperback on 2 February, 2023.
