Gilly's Gone Home

Bol

An elderly woman is slowly dying in hospital and her old neighbor and friend has returned to be by her bedside. She had been found as a child outside a bombed house in the streets of London during the Blitz in World War 2. Unable to speak and suddenly orphaned she was evacuated to Liverpool and then out to Australia where she was adopted by a farming couple in a small country town. She steadfastly refused to give up a crumpled photo she had carried with her. On the back was the word Gilly and so everyone assumed that was her name. Her friend returns to the old farmhouse and makes some incredible discoveries including a previously unknown artist studio with some brilliant artwork of Paris. He also finds her diaries. To find out more about her he advertises in a London paper. What happens after that makes you question the telepathy that is thought to perhaps exist between siblings.
