What happens when your past catches up with you? An evocative read for fans of Lisa Jewell and Liane Moriarty.

Every broken heart has a history.

Anna hasn't been back to Oxford since her last summer at university. She tries not to think about her time there, or the tightly knit group of friends she once thought would be hers forever. She has almost forgotten the sting of betrayal, the secret she carries around, the last night she spent with them all.

Then a chance meeting on a rainy day in London brings her past tumbling back into her present. . . Can Anna finally face up to the memories of that summer and the people she left behind?

An absorbing, powerful novel of love, friendship and secrets that sweeps you away from the very first page. The perfect read for fans of Lisa Jewell, Liane Moriarty and Jane Fallon.

Mostly Books

Sometimes you can have a very intense group of friends that you were at university with and then real life takes over, but there’s a kind of echo that keeps you together. This is a book about second chances, about friendships, the secrets that we keep and the interpretation of events.
