Book description
1993. The small seaside town of Kingshaven is looking picture perfect
in the spring sunshine. With house prices on the move and summer on
its way, there's much to look forward to. Then, suddenly, the peace is
shattered by the explosion of ordnance that has lain buried since
World War Two.
In London, 25-year-old Cat Miller sees the story unfolding on the
news; in Rome, 43-year-old Iris Quinn feels the pull of the home she
ran away from long ago; in Kingshaven, uncomfortable memories are
triggered for nonagenarian Liliana King.
As the secrets of the past begin to unravel, three generations of
women try to make sense of their lives as they struggle to find future
happiness at the dawn of a new century...
Imogen Parker is the acclaimed author of several novels, including
The Things We Do For Love and
The Time Of Our Lives, also about Kingshaven and the Palace
Hotel. She lives on the south coast with her husband and son.
