'The story is fresh and original, written vividly and with flair. I
was completely engrossed!' --Katherine Webb, international
best-selling author 'Beautiful... A fascinating tale of the meeting
of lost souls. Of danger, and trust and self-worth. Read it.' --Jen
Campbell, author of Weird Things Customers Say in Bookshops 'A
stunning debut... The storyline is original, the characters are
fascinating, and over all this is simply a great read.' --The
Bookbag 'The characters grabbed my heart, the story pulled me in
and I sailed through the pages... Put Cassandra Parkin's debut
novel on your To-Read list.' --Women's World When nineteen-year-old
Davey finds himself drunk, beaten and alone, he is rescued by the
oddly assorted inhabitants of an abandoned and beautiful house in
the West Country. Their only condition for letting him join them is
that he asks them no questions. More than thirty years ago in that
same house, burned-out rock star Jack Laker writes a
ground-breaking comeback album, and abandons the girl who saved his
life to embark on a doomed and passionate romance with a young
actress. His attempt to escape his destructive lifestyle leads to
deceit, debauchery and even murder. As Davey and his fellow
housemate Priss try to uncover the secrets of the house's
inhabitants, both past and present, it becomes clear that the five
strangers have all been drawn there by the events and the music of
that long-ago summer.
