Produktbeschreibung
From international bestselling author Harriet Evans, an engrossing new novel about a woman who, on the eve of her eightieth birthday, decides to reveal a secret that may destroy her perfect family. The day Martha Winter decided to tear apart her family began like any other day. When Martha, a wife and mother of three, sits down one late summer's morning to write out the invitations to her eightieth birthday celebration, she knows that what she is planning to reveal at the party could ruin the idyllic life she and her husband David have spent over fifty years building... But she has to let her family know what she and David have sacrificed. She can't live a lie any more. The invitation goes out far and wide, calling her three children and their families back home to Winterfold, their rambling house in the heart of the English countryside. They are Bill, the doctor; Florence, the eccentric academic; and Daisy, the child who never fit in. As the story unfolds, each character reveals the secrets, joys, and tragedies they are wrestling with through the confines of the family. What will happen when Martha finally tells the truth?

Rezensionen
Harriet Evans is a master at creating characters you feel like you know inside out, and wish you could meet in real life - we almost couldn't bear to leave them when we finished. An unputdownable thrill of a novel - you'll be racing to the end to find out the Winter family's deep, dark secret. If you are looking for a modern-day Daphne du Maurier thriller with plenty of tear-jerking romance along the way, here's the perfect addition to your bookshelf. _____ Heat
