Summary
When she had been a little girl she had loathed the island she had lived on her whole life. Instead of being trapped here, with the sea surrounding her and the few people she had known her whole life, she had wanted to be on the mainland where everything was buzzing and lively, where she would be more likely to find love.
But when war broke out, she became grateful for the seclusion the Scottish Isles of Orkney provided.
The morning, when a German soldier washed up on the beach, pulse slow but still going, she had been even more grateful. The islanders were rarely bothered by the officers of the army who looked for deserters and traitors. And the Starks had always been a good, law-abiding and charitable family. Having a good name and being from a small island where visitors were few and far between was actually an advantage when it came to hiding an injured German soldier.
