Summer Afternoon

The day Ada’s mother bolts, the stillness of her childhood is shattered and Ada tumbles into an unfamiliar world of love and strangers.
The only constant in her life is Goodly Manor, their ancestral home on the Cornish coast.
When her friend Cornelia becomes consumed with the absurd quest to find a suitable husband amongst the glitter of the London Season, Ada decides she’d much rather learn to fly than go hunting for a suitable man. However, her flying instructor is making things rather more challenging than she had anticipated.
War topples Ada’s relatively peaceful existence, when five evacuee children are unceremoniously dropped at her doorstep. A wounded RAF pilot also decides that Goodly Manor - Ada’s now chaotic home, is the only place he can hope to come to terms with the frustration of his blindness.
Together they must learn to hold on to what really matters; their freedom and their friends.
