The secret of what happens next will endure for generations. But the truth won't stay hidden forever... Riga, 1943.

An agreement between sisters made in the desperation of war sends Zenta to a new life across the world, a baby at her side, with a secret she'll never tell. Until, decades later, now a grandmother, the smells and warmth of the bakery still in her heart, Zenta is finally ready to set the truth free...
