Deliciously dramatic and positively oozing with tension, this is another wonderfully absorbing novel from the Sunday Times bestseller Susan Lewis ... The characters are well-rounded ... and the descriptions of rural France transport you there in an instant. Expertly written to brew an atmosphere of foreboding, this story is an irresistible blend of intrigue and passion, and the consequences of secrets and betrayal
