Vera

Reportedly the inspiration for Daphne du Maurier’s Rebecca, this is a brilliantly dark exploration of marriage from the author of The Enchanted April Lucy Entwhistle and Everard Wemyss are both reeling from recent unhappiness when they meet and swiftly fall in love. Lucy is Wemyss’s ‘sweet girl’, and to Lucy, Everard is the whole world. The only blot on Lucy’s happiness is the shadowy figure of Wemyss’s first wife, Vera, who died in mysterious circumstances. But it is not until the happy couple return home and begin their life of wedded bliss that Lucy really begins to wonder- what did happen to Vera? —- ISBN: 9781784872335
