Summary

The gripping and emotional audio novel of secrets, romance and betrayal in 1950s London, from the author of MY MOTHER'S SECRET and THE ORCHARD GIRLS.

It's 1953. Memories of the war are beginning to fade.

Young Queen Elizabeth has just ascended to the throne. Isobel McIntyre is a doctor-in-training at a London teaching hospital. It's not easy being a woman working in medicine. And Isobel carries the additional burden of a shocking secret...

One night three years ago, Isobel took the chance to walk into another woman's life. By the time she understood the implications, it was too late to turn back. Now the secret she's been hiding for so long threatens everything - her career, new-found friendships, and a love affair that promises the kind of joy Isobel thought was only for others.

Love and happiness can't thrive in a world of lies. But does Isobel have the courage to tell the truth, whatever the consequences?

From the author of MY MOTHER'S SHADOW, SUMMER OF SECRETS and THE ORCHARD GIRLS: an evocative audiobook of one woman struggling to protect herself and her dreams, in a city in tatters. Can Isobel hide her secret - or will love force her hand?
