The Heatwave

Provence. Élodie was beautiful. Élodie was smart. Élodie was troubled. Élodie is dead. Sylvie hasn’t been back to La Rêverie, her crumbling family home in years. Not since the death of her daughter, Élodie. Every corner of the old house feels haunted by memories of her – memories Sylvie has tried to forget. But as temperatures rise, and forest fires rage across the French countryside, a long-buried family secret is about to come to light. Because there’s something Sylvie has been hiding about what really happened to Élodie that summer.
