(just re-issued, I've been told) American woman finds herself running her husband's isolated estate in occupied Tuscany. Things become complicated (understatement) as Allies approach: partesans hiding in the woods, retreating Germans, locals from both sides of political divide all have to be juggled (and fed) and children taken to safety. Amazing.
