Sinopse

1940, England: Clementine Churchill is standing alone on a rooftop in London as bombs rain down on the city when a nearby explosion almost knocks her off her feet. Shaking, she rushes homewards to 10 Downing Street and breathes a sigh of relief when she sees the famous building is still there. It means the Prime Minister - her husband - is still alive.ááStepping into WinstonâÇÖs reassuring arms, she hears his steady heartbeat. She knew from the day they married thirty years ago that he wanted to lead the country. Since then, theyâÇÖve been a partnership in love and in politics. Tragedy once almost tore them apart... but now, Winston is Prime Minister, just as he always dreamed. Except, with the war against Hitler, itâÇÖs a much bigger responsibility than either of them ever expected: The world needs Winston, and Winston needs her.áWhile Winston co-ordinates battles across Europe, Clementine finds herself in the spotlight for the first time. Her husbandâÇÖs name may be on the lips of every soldier and politician but she knows as she visits hospitals and campaigns for better conditions in air raid shelters, that the ordinary people speak her name just as much. She realises she has the potential to make a difference - not as WinstonâÇÖs shadow in the background but as Clementine Churchill.áOne evening, as she looks into WinstonâÇÖs dear face, Clementine can tell his bravery comes at a cost. But can she overcome the heartbreaking loss in her past to help the man she loves succeed? And, together, can they finish the fight for freedom?áThis is a fictional novel inspired by the remarkable life of Clementine Churchill. It is a story of the power of love and courage. It is the story of how a husband and wife saved the world. It is a story like no other...áWhat readers are saying about Anna Stuart:áâÇÖBLEW me away... I was in absolute AWE reading this...
