An intimate, gripping story of friendship, marriage and the tragedy of loss. A true literary page-turner.An arresting first novel about a woman who, on her deathbed, recalls the fateful summer of 1936, a summer that forever changed her life. Isobel has been wife, mother, hatmaker. At the end of her long life she is simply herself, with one last story to tell her only surviving child. Picking up the threads of a mystery that has shadowed her for sixty years, Isobel recalls her brief but unforgettable friendship with an extraordinary woman and how she became witness to a passionate and dangerous love affair that tested her loyalty and her definitions of what is 'proper'. When that summer dissolved in a haunting tragedy, Isobel was left to assess her future, her own marriage and, finally, to understand the risk of loving someone wholly.
