Plot summary
Elizabeth, called Daisy, is an irritable American teenager whose father sends her to spend the summer on her Aunt Penn's farm in the English countryside. Isaac meets her at the airport and drives her out to meet Eddie, Piper and the neighbor's son Joe, and Daisy keeps her distance from them all. Aunt Penn studies terrorist groups, and she flies to Geneva for an emergency conference, leaving the children on their own. Daisy learns that her late mother, Julia, used to stay at the farm, and she begins to fall in love with Eddie. Then terrorists set off a nuclear bomb in London, the electricity fails, and martial law is declared. An American consular official offers Daisy passage home, but she chooses to stay with Eddie.
