Summary

Summer 2018. Britain is basking in a rare heatwave. And Hazel and Dorothy Wilding are working together to clear their family farm high on the North Yorkshire moors.

The sisters have been estranged for 42 years. And they’re not happy to be forced together now.

Dorothy has always been a dutiful daughter. She’s a regular chapel-goer. She never married. And she’s stayed on the farm all her life, working in the family B & B.
Hazel, is lesbian. She lives in London, where she runs her own business in partnership with her gay best friend Vinny.

The two women seem irretrievably locked in bitterness. Though they loved each other once.

But then two long-lost figures suddenly re-emerge from the past. And the sisters are forced to look back on a much earlier heatwave summer from 1967. The summer when everything went wrong between them. The summer that broke their hearts.

A great listen.

For me I loved the setting in Yorkshire it created a lovely imagery in my head. I loved the fact that the characters were a little older and showing all their flaws.

A Wonderful Listen!

This book is a little different from Jane’s other books and my new favourite. As always the characters and setting are fully developed and draw you into the book. The emotions portrayed cover the full range of those we all experience at some point in our lives from rejection and distress to hope and optimism. I particularly enjoyed the contrast of life in 1976 to 2018. For me that brought back many memories, but for those who didn’t live through 1976 it will show just how significant the changes have been since then.
The narration is excellent and brings these characters to life.
