THE SUNDAY TIMES TOP TEN BESTSELLING AUTHOR 'Wonderful . . . hugely
ambitious and atmospheric' KATE MOSSE 'Superb storytelling' DINAH
JEFFERIES Discover a brilliant story of intrigue, romance and
betrayal in 1930s Italy, from the internationally bestselling
author . . . . Italy, 1932 - Mussolini's Italy is growing from
strength to strength, but at what cost? One bright autumn morning,
architect Isabella Berotti sits at a cafe in the vibrant centre of
Bellina, when a woman she's never met asks her to watch her
ten-year-old daughter, just for a moment. Reluctantly, Isabella
agrees - and then watches in horror as the woman climbs to the top
of the town's clock tower and steps over the edge. This tragic
encounter draws vivid memories to the surface, forcing Isabella to
probe deeper into the secrets of her own past as she tries to
protect the young girl from the authorities. Together with
charismatic photographer Roberto Falco, Isabella is about to
discover that secrets run deeper, and are more dangerous, than
either of them could have possibly imagined . . . From the
glittering marble piazzas to the picturesque hillside villages and
winding streets of Rome, The Italian Wife will take you on an
breath-taking journey. Perfect for fans of Dinah Jefferies, Lucinda
Riley and Rosanna Ley. PRAISE FOR KATE FURNIVALL: 'A thrilling plot
... Fast-paced with a sinister edge' The Times 'A thrilling,
compelling read. Wonderful!' Lesley Pearse 'Gripping . . .
poignant, beautifully written ...will capture the reader' The Sun
'Truly captivating' Elle 'Perfect escapist reading' Marie Claire
'An achingly beautiful epic' New Woman 'A rollicking good read'
