The Sunday Times Top Ten bestseller from the author of HAMNET and THE MARRIAGE PORTRAIT
''Insightful and emotionally raw' Daily Telegraph
When Lily moves into Marcus's flat, she is intrigued by signs of his recently departed ex-lover. A single dress left hanging in the wardrobe, a mysterious mark on the wall, the lingering odour of jasmine.
Who was this woman? What exactly were the circumstances of her sudden exit? And why won't Aidan, Marcus's flatmate, answer any of her questions? It doesn't take long for Lily's curiosity to grow into an all-pervading obsession.
Maggie' O'Farrell's bestselling follow-up to After You'd Gone is a contemporary ghost story with a difference.
'Brilliantly describes how old relationships can haunt new lovers' Elle
'Shock, grief and loss spring from the page' Sunday Telegraph
'Gripping and passionate' Literary Review
'Laden with suspense' Good Housekeeping
