SHORTLISTED FOR THE BOOKER PRIZE 2024
An exhilarating tale of twisted desire, histories and homes, and the unexpected
shape of revenge - for readers of Patricia Highsmith, Sarah Waters and Ian
McEwan's Atonement.
It is fifteen years after the Second World War, and Isabel has built herself a
solitary life of discipline and strict routine in her late mother's country
home, with not a fork or a word out of place. But all is upended when her
brother Louis delivers his graceless new girlfriend, Eva, at Isabel's doorstep -
as a guest, there to stay for the season…
In the sweltering heat of summer, Isabel's desperate need for control reaches
boiling point. What happens between the two women leads to a revelation which
threatens to unravel all she has ever known.
