Summer on St Kilda - a wild, remote Scottish island. Two strangers
from drastically different worlds meet . . . Wild-spirited Effie
Gillies has lived all her life on the small island of St Kilda but
when Lord Sholto, heir to the Earl of Dumfries, visits, the
attraction between them is instant. For one glorious week she
guides the handsome young visitor around the isle, falling in love
for the first time - until a storm hits and her world falls apart.
Three months later, St Kilda falls silent as the islanders are
evacuated for a better life on the mainland. With her friends and
family scattered, Effie is surprised to be offered a position
working on the Earl's estate. Sholto is back in her life but their
differences now seem insurmountable, even as the simmering tension
between them grows. And when a shocking discovery is made back on
St Kilda, all her dreams for this bright new life are threatened by
the dark secrets Effie and her friends thought they had left
behind. Opposites attract in this epic and spellbinding novel,
which transports us from the untamed beauty of St Kilda to the
glamour and intrigues of high society in the 1930s. The Last Summer
is the first book in The Wild Isle series by Sunday Times
bestseller Karen Swan, inspired by the true history of St Kilda and
its small island community. 'meticulously researched and
beautifully told by one of our most prolific and talented writers .
. . a wonderfully satisfying read' Santa Montefiore 'The most
exciting, enchanting and evocative story of forbidden love I've
ever read. I truly loved it and am waiting feverishly for the
second instalment' - Cathy Bramley 'Powerful writing and a
wonderful premise make this a novel you'll simultaneously want to
savour and race through. I loved it and can't wait for the next in
the series!' - Jill Mansell 'A delicious romantic tale of wild
1930s Scotland . . . perfect for everyone dreaming of summer' -
