The distant hours [large print] / Kate Morton.

Summary:

Edie Burchill receives a letter that has lain for 50 years in a forgotten postal bag, and begins to suspect that her mother's emotional distance masked an old secret. She sets out to find the answers by tracking the letter back to its source, starting with the return address: Milderhurst Castle, Kent, where her mother had been taken as a child, during the London evacuations of World War II.
