       PROLOGUE

       Tindledale, in rural England, 1939

      The flip of a coin is all it had taken to seal seventeen-year-old Constance Levine’s fate.

      ‘Heads, she goes to Aunt Rachael in Manhattan,’ her mother had declared, barely able to even look at her ‘wanton’ daughter, the word she had used on first discovering Connie’s condition.

      Manhattan.
