This beautiful book is written backwards. Intrigued? You should be, as you'll be sucked into an unforgettable read.
This is a beautifully written and evocative story about two lives, and their great love.
Every now and again, a novel comes along that is so different, so affecting and so unforgettable, that you simply must tell everyone you know to read it...you will never forget this one - for all the right reasons.
A taut, beguiling love-story-in-reverse that reveals just how far people will go to protect themselves from facing the truth
