Description
'An elegant, provocative, twisting thriller… hugely entertaining and beautifully written' CHRIS WHITAKER
'Sultry and seductive… utterly compelling' LUCY CLARKE
Your mother is not who you think she is…
When the phone rings in Judy McVee’s Languedoc farmhouse, she knows her past has finally caught up with her. It’s her daughter, frantically asking why there are journalists on her London doorstep making terrible accusations.
Decades earlier, Judy was a girl with big plans – to ensnare a rich husband, to make something of herself, to rise above her upbringing and leave behind past tragedies. Wealthy young widower Rory Harrington seemed the perfect target – but Judy hadn’t reckoned on actually falling in love with him.
Now her daughter Francesca, who has secrets of her own, must come to terms with the realisation that the mother she thought she knew wasn’t real. Where has Judy gone – and was anything she told her family true?
Moving from Cape Cod to London, New York to the South of France, THE END OF SUMMER is a gripping, nuanced literary thriller from a writer at the top of her game.
Ce que les critiques en disent
‘A spectacular triumph! The End of Summer is literary suspense at its most deadly and delicious. Charlotte Philby has crafted a stunning tale of family secrets that questions whether we ever really know those around us. With sun-drenched escapism, sumptuously glamorous locations and characters to die for, this is the thriller of the summer and a story you never want to end’ (MATTHEW BLAKE)
‘Starts with a bang and keeps the surprises coming until the last page’ (ERIN KELLY)
‘Sun-soaked, secret-packed and seriously page-turning, this is the perfect literary beach read’ (ELLORY LLOYD)
