‘Darkly glamorous. Your summer read is sorted’ Sunday Times Style ‘A smart page turner with an irresistible heroine. Glamorous, exuberant and propulsive, this is a story that will stay with me for a long time’ Daisy Buchanan, author of Insatiable 'A glitteringly glamorous and gossipy trip to 1960s Rome with a chaotically charming protagonist and a transporting setting, all with a mystery at its heart. Dunlay’s gorgeously immersive novel will fill a Lessons In Chemistry shaped hole on your shelf (and heart)' Ellery Lloyd, author of The Club 'Claustrophobic and glamourous. A heady, steamy novel about desire for people, possessions and ultimately the self.' Araminta Hall, author of Perfect Strangers 'Mad Men meets White Lotus, this novel has it all: atmosphere, glamour, danger, a heroine at the center of a web she doesn’t understand. Teddy is the ungovernable passion at the center of every woman.' Jenna Blum, author of The Lost Family
