***THE EBOOK BESTSELLER*** Perfect for fans of Lucinda Riley, Dinah
Jefferies, Victoria Hislop and Lucy Foley. Two great loves. One
shattering betrayal. A war that changes everything. **************
'Island in the East is a stunner' Kate Furnivall 'Exotic and
mysterious - I was gripped' Dinah Jefferies 'A moving, stirring
love story' Rachel Rhys 'Evocative, absorbing. . . A rich and
satisfying read' Gill Paul 'It becomes impossible to put this book
down' Kate Riordan ************** Singapore, 1897 Harriet and Mae
Grafton are twenty-year-old identical twins born from a scandalous
affair. They grew up in India slighted by gossip and ostracised
from polite society. They had each other and that was enough. But
when their wealthy benefactor sends them to Singapore, they meet
the mysterious Alex Blake and their relationship fractures with
devastating consequences. 1941 Ivy Harcourt is posted to wartime
Singapore amid the looming threat of Japanese invasion. Ivy knows
the island will be a far cry from war-torn London, but she is
totally unprepared for what awaits her: strangers from her
grandmother Mae's past, an unstoppable love affair and a shattering
secret that's been waiting to be uncovered . . . Vivid, authentic
and utterly beautiful - with a sizzling love affair playing out
against sisterly rivalry and epic family drama - Island in the East
is romantic historical fiction at its very best. More praise for
Jenny Ashcroft: 'Beautifully described . . . A moving love story'
Tracy Rees 'A great read.' Judith Lennox 'A summer must-read' Red
'Love, sisterly rivalry and betrayal are themes in this epic tale'
My Weekly 'Brilliant; everything romantic historical fiction should
be.' Nicola Cornick 'Absolutely brilliant' Kerry Fisher 'Completely
entrancing . . . Perfect escapism, beautifully written.' Emma Rous
'Evocative, lush and beautifully written, Island in the East is a
gripping read.' Nikola Scott 'First-class writing, brilliant
characters, fascinating locations and gripping plots' Tracy
Buchanan 'Exquisitely written . . . unputdownable and
unforgettable' Iona Grey 'A wonderful novel, full of mystery that
kept me gripped until the end' Rachel Burton
