The House on the Edge of the Cliff
Published by Open Road Media
A woman’s peaceful life in a clifftop French villa is threatened by the past: “Threaded with mystery and menace . . . the story kept me gripped.” —Dinah Jefferies, bestselling author
As an adventurous teenager, Grace came to France amid the student protests and upheavals of 1968—and became involved in relationships with two men, one tempestuous, the other gentle and supportive. But the romantic triangle came to an end when one of the men died by drowning.
Decades later, Grace remains in her adopted country, living happily with her husband, Peter, in a beautiful, secluded home in Provence. Her sole focus is keeping Peter’s stress to a minimum while he awaits his upcoming heart surgery. But after all these years, Grace is confronted by a visitor she never expected to see—and must keep her escalating fear hidden from her ailing husband, in this epic, time-spanning story of love and betrayal from the bestselling author.
“A beautifully woven and compelling tale of passion, love and intrigue.” —Rowan Coleman, author of We Are All Made of Stars
“Carol Drinkwater's writing is like taking an amazing holiday in book form.” —Jenny Colgan, New York Times–bestselling author
“Given extra resonance by the beautifully drawn French landscape. Emotional and tenderly written.” —Elizabeth Buchan, author of Consider the Lily
