The Shadow Year

On a sultry summer’s day in 1980, five friends stumble upon an abandoned lakeside cottage hidden deep in the English countryside. For Kat and her friends, it offers an escape; a chance to drop out for a while, with lazy summer days by the lake and intimate winter evenings around the fire. But as the seasons change, tensions begin to rise and when an unexpected visitor appears at their door, nothing will be the same again.

Three decades later, Lila arrives at the same remote cottage. With her marriage in crisis, she finds solace in renovating the tumbledown house. Little by little she wonders about the previous inhabitants. How did they manage in such isolation? Why did they leave in such a hurry, with their belongings still strewn about? Most disturbing of all, why can t she shake the feeling that someone might be watching her?

The Shadow Year is a story of secrets, tragedy, lies and betrayal. It’s a tale that explores the light and dark of human relationships and the potential the past has to not only touch our present, but also to alter our future.

Guest Post: What Women’s Fiction Means to Sally Koslow

the widow waltz

A few weeks ago, a publicist for Sally Koslow emailed me about the possibility of reviewing THE WIDOW WALTZ (out in paperback 5/27/14!) Having reviewed it last year when I requested through Netgalley, I was then offered the option of a guest post by Sally.

So if you are looking for a beach read (and aren’t we all as the temperatures begin to rise and the lazy and carefree days of summer fast approach?), then THE WIDOW WALTZ may just be what you are looking for! And just in case you need more convincing- look at that dog- that dog is adorable and the cover is perfect!
