What to expect

An enthralling tale of the enduring power of friendship, SUMMER AT SEASTONE is the latest mesmerising tale of drama and intrigue from Judith Lennox, the author of HIDDEN LIVES and THE SECRETS BETWEEN US. Not to be missed by readers of Rachel Hore and Kate Morton.

Every summer Bea, Marissa and Emma meet at Seastone, Emma's family home on the remote Suffolk coast, to retreat from their daily lives and take comfort in their friendship. Over the years, their paths have not been easy. For Bea, the aftermath of a broken-hearted love affair influences the decisions she makes. For Marissa, the fear that her traumatic past will catch up with her haunts her still. And, for Emma, the sacrifices she has made for her family leave her full of longing and regret . . .

At Seastone, Emma's extraordinary mother, Tamar, is on hand to offer support and encouragement, but Tamar harbours her own heartrending secret that stems from a brief encounter during the Second World War. Coming together as friends each summer, these courageous women gain the strength to face the challenges that lie ahead...
