CAPE MAY TPB

Glamorous and nostalgic and very sexy... One of those books that stays with you' Paula Hawkins
September 1957
Henry and Effie, young newlyweds from Georgia, arrive in Cape May, New Jersey, for their honeymoon. It's the end of the season and the town is deserted.

'The new Gatsby... With shades of F Scott Fitzgerald, Revolutionary Road and even Mad Men. It is so, so good' Stylist (The Top 10 Books of 2019)
'An exquisitely crafted exploration of young love, the power of desire, and the lifelong ramifications of choices made in an instant...
