Sarah is fed up with Alec.
He’s thoughtless, self-centred and takes her completely for granted, but she can’t quite believe he might be having an affair. Who else would put up with him?
Sometimes, she wishes she had married Martin. Sweet, kind, sensitive Martin, her First Love. She hasn’t heard from him for fifteen years but she can’t help daydreaming about him. How could she have let him slip through her fingers? What went wrong between them?
Sarah decides to make a stand against Alec’s selfishness. In a Grand Gesture of defiance, she packs the children into the car, leaves a note and heads off to France to find Martin. She’s determined to discover why their perfect relationship petered out so strangely.
It’s a heady, liberating experience – until her quest reveals hurtful secrets, and her intense desire to relive her youth starts to get seriously out of hand.
The past can be a perilous place to visit.
