Summary
Pre-order the emotional new novel from bestselling author of Thursday's in the Park and The Escape, Hilary Boyd
Over a long hot summer, the secrets of the past bubble to the surface . . .
After years caring for her ailing husband, Kitty Cox is finding it hard adjusting to a new life alone.
So when old friend Vee reappears in the village in urgent need of a place to stay, Kitty says yes. It’s the obvious solution to both their needs.
Soon Vee, her new partner Raf and young son Bear have moved in for the summer. At first, Kitty relishes the company. Yet, despite their renewed friendship, she feels Vee is keeping something from her. And, in the heat, tensions build and secrets simmer.
It’s clear that Vee isn’t the woman Kitty once knew. But who has she let into her home? And might this act of charity turn out to be the biggest mistake of her life?
