A story in two parts. The first part is the story of Dorrie Milner (an English nanny) and her French friend Beatrice (who Dorrie was caring for) Best Christmas Yet spent in Otz, Austria in 1934. The second part is Dorrie's escape from occupied France in 1940 and the link to that is here.

"In 1934 I took a young French girl to the Austrian Tyrol for Winter. We stayed as paying guests with an Austrian princess whose family had been ruined in the First World War."
