Grace's journey to France began long ago, when she was a young and adventurous soul, full of dreams of exploration. It was there that she met two very different men, each captivating in their own way. She fell under the spell of one, while the other fell under hers. Their lives intertwined in a dance of passion and desire, until one summer night shattered everything they had built.

Years have passed, and Grace now finds herself living an idyllic life with her husband, nestled in a magnificent Provençal villa, perched atop a windswept cliff. Every day, she gazes out over the sea, the only witness to that fateful night that changed her life forever. But her peaceful existence is soon disrupted when a stranger arrives at the house. A stranger who knows everything, and won't leave until he gets what he wants.

The past and present collide spectacularly in this gripping story of love and betrayal, echoing across the decades. Carol Drinkwater's writing is like taking an amazing holiday in book form, threading mystery and menace from the very start and keeping you gripped until the very end.
