The international bestselling author of THE LEGACY and THE UNSEEN returns with a searing novel of secrets and feuds



Italy, 1921.
When Leandro Cardetta returns to Puglia from America a rich man, he is determined to make his mark. But how did he get so wealthy?

Boyd, a quiet English architect, is hired to build Leandro’s dreams. But why is he so afraid of Leandro, and what really happened between them years before?

When Boyd’s wife, Clare, is summoned to Puglia, she is instantly desperate to leave, but soon finds a compelling reason to stay.

And Ettore, starving, poor and grieving for his lost fiancée, is too proud to ask his Uncle Leandro for help. Until events conspire to force his hand.

Tensions are high as poverty leads veterans of the Great War to the brink of rebellion. And under the burning sky, a reckless love and a violent enmity will bring brutal truths to light . . .
