This is the first book I have read by this author and I can't wait to try more. A lovely novel about a young girl in her mid-teens, holidaying with her parents at fashionable Fortune's Rocks on the east coast of America. Set in the very end of the 19th century, this is the tale of her passionate and destructive affair with a man much older than herself. I couldn't put it down.
