Synopsis

Trapped between life and the afterlife, three women meet and share their stories while discovering the truth about the men in their lives—and about themselves. Suspended in an eerie state of limbo, an entity called the Gatekeeper tells Nikki, Ronnie, and Mrs. Hawthorne they are on the cusp of entering the afterlife—but only if the women can persuade him that in their earthly lives, they knew the meaning of love. Fragments of their memories return, plunging them back into their pasts, and forcing them to face the desires, disappointments, addictions, lies, and obsessions they battled in life. But before time runs out, will they find the answer to the ultimate question: what is love? “Darkly funny and completely compelling, with brilliantly flawed characters you can’t help rooting for, even when they’re bad.” —Frances Quinn, author of The Smallest Man “Utterly mind blowing! If Stuart Turton had written Gone Girl it would look like this. Intelligent, compelling writing that is genre defining. Brilliant!” —Victoria Dowd, author of The Supper Club Murders “Gripping, thought-provoking and clever. I was hooked from the very first page.” —Nicola Gill, author of The Neighbours “Beautiful, edgy and the perfect debut. A tale crafted with heart, soul and sass.” —Keith A. Pearson, author of The ‘86 Fix

    From USA Today bestselling author, Anna Markland 
     
     
     
    In the almost 150 years since 1066, the Montbryce family has established a powerful dynasty with extensive estates in England and Normandy. But change is in the wind. The French have ousted King John from Normandy by capturing Château Gaillard after a long siege. The duchy, independent since the time of Rollo, is now part of France. Becket de Montbryce is fated to be the first of his line to inherit the family's lands and titles as a Frenchman. Ironically, he was in command of the Norman troops who fought alongside the French. A dangerous secret. Having escaped the besieged castle in the guise of a nun, Marguerite d'Aigremont must find a way to get back to her native England—without anyone discovering she is King John's cousin. She despises the Normans who sided with their age-old enemy to bring about king John's ouster as Duke of Normandy. But she is dependent on Becket if she's to have any hope of returning to England. Despite their differences, Becket and Marguerite are drawn to each other. Will the Montbryce Dynasty survive intact when King Philip of France discovers the family has aided King John's cousin?
