We’ll Meet Again by Elise Darcy

A house with a forgotten history. A resident with a secret past. A woman starting over, unsure what the future holds.

Working as an Occupational Therapist in a busy London hospital, Cassie loves her job but is looking forward to early retirement in five years when she reaches fifty. However, her husband has other ideas…
Suddenly single, Cassie needs a fresh start. Responding to an ad for a live-in position, Cassie arrives at Fletchling Hall, a grand stately home, its corridors echoing with stories from the past.
Her new position seems too good to be true, living in a cottage in the grounds, the commute into work a glorious stroll through the gardens to the imposing house in the Sussex countryside; a world away from the crowded tube journey in London.
Then she meets Evelyn, and understands why the last O.T. walked out and never came back. After years spending her days sitting by the window waiting for a visitor who never comes, Evelyn is taciturn, quarrelsome and difficult. But things are about to change…
In the cellar, a forgotten diary has languished undisturbed for nearly seventy years. When Cassie discovers the diary, it pique’s not only her interest, but Evelyn’s. Together they unravel the heartfelt story of two young souls from the war years, also a little boy called Ted, a young evacuee, and reveal the surprising connection Cassie, a Canadian, has to the house and its resident.
