When Jacques’s naked body is discovered in a hotel room, his widow, Patricia, suspects he’s been hiding something. Her misgivings grow when a mysterious woman visits his grave and his will reveals a small fortune left to an unnamed beneficiary. Patricia’s hunt for the truth takes her from London, where Jacques’s sister’s misplaced loyalty only heightens her dread, to Malmö, the home of her estranged twin and scene of a doomed romance. Meanwhile, in Paris, Isabelle is at the beginning of her own journey of discovery after a marriage based in deception.
Hélene Fermont: “Bryony is an exceptional editor and belongs to a very exclusive group of professionals uniquely gifted to bring out the very best in authors. The author journey is hard in a very challenging industry. Without Bryony’s insight into details and kind encouragement and support, I’d not have developed and persevered as much, and certainly not have found the strength to go that extra mile to ensure my novels are the best they can be.”
