About this listen
But on the night that she plans to tell Joe their news, he doesn't come home. Fearing the worst, Edie scours the city for her missing husband, and eventually she unearths a clue: Joe's wedding ring, alongside a note urging her towards Paris.
Using her heart as a compass, Edie sets off on a journey that takes her across Europe, following a trail that promises to unlock the mystery and lead her to Joe.
As tensions rise and temperatures soar, Edie draws closer to the truth - but unravelling the past comes at a cost.
When the heatwave finally breaks, will it take Edie down with it?
Epic love and long-kept secrets collide in this evocative and enthralling historical fiction novel, set against the backdrop of the era-defining 1976 European heatwave, from international bestseller Mandy Robotham - perfect for fans of Kristin Hannah, Victoria Hislop and Lucinda Riley.©2026 Mandy Robotham (P)2026 Little, Brown Book Group Limited
