The end of summer / Charlotte Philby.
When the phone rings in Judy McVee's Languedoc farmhouse, she knows her past has finally caught up with her. It's her daughter, frantically asking why there are journalists on her London doorstep making terrible accusations. Decades earlier, Judy was a girl with big plans - to ensnare a rich husband, to make something of herself, to rise above her upbringing and leave behind past tragedies. Wealthy young widower Rory Harrington seemed the perfect target - but Judy hadn't reckoned on actually falling in love with him. Now her daughter Francesca, who has secrets of her own, must come to terms with the realisation that the mother she thought she knew wasn't real. Where has Judy gone - and was anything she told her family true?
