The plot and the characters in this book were well thought out and interesting. Life becomes hard and Petra who already suffers from anxiety struggles to get through these unhappy times.
When war comes attitudes change towards their mother who is German and their Italian friend who runs the bakery. They enjoy their lives by the sea and help their father with his lighthouse duties. Since they were small they have known about the legend of the standing stones that guard the lighthouse and enjoy their father's stories about them. The story starts in happier times when Mutti, Pa and their daughters Magda and Petra live in a lighthouse called the castle. This was a very enjoyable and interesting story set in Kent, England during WWII.
