Description
A powerful tale of passion and betrayal and a woman’s determination to find out the truth about her past — from the author of The Hornbeam Tree.
A successful editor with a gorgeous husband, two adorable children and a beautiful London home, Julia has everything. But somehow she’s still searching. Her beloved father walked out when she was sixteen and no one would tell her why. She’s spent all her life missing him but wondering if she has blocked a memory too terrible to even contemplate. Julia’s confusion over the past has come to dominate her present and is even threatening her idyllic marriage — she’s convinced Josh is having an affair.
Then one day Julia is informed that her father has died, and has left his house in Cornwall to her. Still reeling from the news, she calls on her best friend Sylvia only to confront her worst fear.
Devastated, Julia goes down to Cornwall to see if she can discover the truth about her father. Although feeling betrayed by the two men she loved most, she longs to break free from the past and save her relationship with Josh. But Julia makes her own fatal mistake and once more their marriage is rocked to its very foundation.
