Description
In the summer of 1929, a young woman finds herself in a decaying beach house on the windswept Atlantic coast, her marriage already showing the first signs of strain. As the opulent world she once knew begins to crumble, she must navigate the complexities of a union built on shifting sands of wealth and unspoken secrets. This evocative novel delves into the heart of a marriage tested by societal pressures and personal desires, exploring themes of love, loss, and the enduring power of the past. Anita Shreve masterfully crafts a story of quiet desperation and the search for solace amidst the ruins of a bygone era.
