In a quiet coastal village stands an abandoned house whispered to be haunted. Locals say the spirit of a young woman still lingers there, waiting for a love that never returned.
That woman was Alice.
During the years of occupation, Alice discovered a wounded French soldier, Frank, hiding in her family's stable. She should have turned him in. Instead, she hid him, healed him, and fell hopelessly in love with him. Their love was gentle, forbidden, and dangerous - a rose blooming in the middle of war. But the world around them was built on division, loyalty, and vengeance. And when fate tore them apart, their story ended in tragedy that echoed for decades.
Sixty years later, Alice's niece, also named Alice, inherits the abandoned house. When an elderly Frenchman arrives to buy it - accompanied by his grandson - the truth of the past begins to surface. Stories are retold. Promises are remembered. Old wounds reopen. And a new love quietly begins to grow, as history tries once more to complete what destiny left unfinished.
