By the author of A Lady Cyclist's Guide to Kashgar, an LA Times bestseller: a beautiful and gripping story of love and betrayal, set in 1920s Jerusalem and 1930s Sussex
Jerusalem, 1920: eleven-year-old Prudence feels tensions rising as her architect father launches an eccentric plan to redesign the Holy City. When he employs a British pilot, William Harrington, to take aerial photographs of the city, Prue is uncomfortably aware of the attraction that sparks between Harrington and Eleanora, the English wife of a famous Jerusalem photographer – a nationalist, intent on removing the British. Years later, in rain-soaked Sussex, Prue opens her door to an unwelcome visitor. What he reveals unravels her world, and she must follow the threads back to secrets buried long ago in Jerusalem…
