DISCOVER AN EARLY CLASSIC FROM #1 INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF WE ALL LIVE HERE, JOJO MOYES!

Two couples. Fifty years. One question.

In the 1950s seaside town of Merham, everyone knows their place. Lottie Swift, an evacuee living with the respectable Holden family, loves it, while the Holdens’ daughter Celia opposes its suffocating constraints.

When a group of bohemians move into Arcadia, a grand Art Deco house on the seafront, Lottie and Celia are both tempted into joining their alternative lifestyle, disrupting everything they once knew . . .

Now almost fifty years on, Arcadia and its past secrets return to life, prompting the question: can you ever leave your past behind?

Moyes evokes the strictures of time beautifully, as well as the enervating charms of a sleepy resort.
