FROM THE BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF THE PERFECT COUPLE, NOW A MAJOR NETFLIX SERIES
***
‘Hilderbrand’s books keep getting better and better’ Bookreporter
‘The queen regent of the easy-breezy summer novel’ New York Post
***
This summer, four women are hoping to escape their troubles . . .
Birdie is organising a wedding, though her own marriage is falling apart. Her sister India is running away from her first chance of happiness in a long time, while her daughter Tate is running to something, but what that is, she doesn’t yet know. And then there’s Chess, who is just a mystery that none of the family know if they will ever unravel.
Gathering together for the first time in years in a ramshackle house with no running water on a remote island, the women settle into a routine.
But just how long can they hide from the secrets, lies and tragedy they have left behind?

'A gritty and moving read that oozes plenty of drama'
'[A] beautifully written, emotional novel'
'A gem of a summer read with a glamorous location, elite lifestyle, and Hilderbrand's appealing take on the constant stress that fills the lives of women everywhere'
So deliciously addictive that it will be the "It" beach book of the summer.
