A propos du livre

Quatrième de couverture

Charlie stopped on the landing, turning to look at Eve. 'Mum didn't say she was putting on a family do. I honestly thought it was only going to be us.'
'Would you have asked me if you'd known all your family would be here?' she asked as she pushed back a lock of brown hair.
'Of course I would. But I know Pam and Eileen can sometimes be a bit overpowering. You must take my sisters-in-law with a pinch of salt. Once you get to know them, you'll like them.'
'You could find yourself a nice girl to introduce to your family, without any kids and who comes from somewhere nice like Blackheath, like Pamela does.'
'I don't want a girl from Blackheath, and I certainly don't want anyone like Pamela. Eve, I want to be with you.' He couldn't stop himself from reaching out and taking her in his arms. And before he knew what was happening, he found himself kissing her.

Présentation de l'éditeur

January 1928, the Isle of Dogs. Following the mysterious disappearance of her sailor husband (missing, presumed drowned), young widow Eve Kumar struggles to provide for herself and her twin sons. But her flower-selling business is destroyed overnight when the Thames floods its banks, wrecking Eve's ramshackle riverside cottage and forcing her to take refuge with the lecherous Harold Slygo and his drunken wife.
As Eve's home life turns from bad to worse, she is befriended by a young constable, Charlie Merritt, who shares Eve's growing suspicions that her husband's death was no accident. But Eve and Charlie's investigations are attracting unwelcome attention - and when Eve herself disappears, it becomes clear there are those who would go to any lengths to ensure the truth remains buried. Will Charlie be able to save the woman he has grown to love?
