About this listen

A beautifully crafted novel by cherished writer Rosamunde Pilcher

Prue is intelligent, artistic, independent - and bored. Pressurised by her mother to make a conventional and dull marriage, she is delighted to escape London to be with her eccentric and bohemian aunt in Cornwall.

A chance encounter with attractive young artist, Daniel, on the seashore leads to an idyllic summer's day exploring the Cornish countryside and coast. But there is something troubling Daniel, and Prue - now deeply entangled - feels compelled to discover what it is . . .

Step back in time with sweet, precious moments, tinged with nostalgia, sea drenched Cornwall described in Rosamunde Pilcher's distinctive style and with her precise attention to detail. Plus if you'd like a break from books talking about today's technology and popular jargon, this might be for you! Helen Johns tone is just right as narrator.
