Summary
Suffolk, 1914. Twelve-year-old Mattie and her little sister Evie lead an idyllic life in the countryside, exploring the meadows and picking watercress in the streams. Living with their family in Plough Cottage, little do they know that this perfect childhood won't last. With World War I just around the corner, the country will soon be thrown into turmoil. As the years pass, the girls go on to live very different lives. Mattie travels to Plymouth and then to Canada and America, whilst Evie remains in England. More than 50 years later, through marriages, deaths, births, war, heartbreak and distance, will these sisters finally be reunited to have their time in the meadows again?
