The Small Party — Lillian Beckwith

For Ruth and her three children their small island home is now a place of danger. An armed uprising has taken over and her husband is out to sea in his fishing boat. Escaping into the night, Ruth heads for Jeannie, her sister-in-law, but what she finds at Jeannie's farm shocks her. Somehow she has to get her children to safety and find her husband. It is a journey that will take up all her courage and determination.
