Von der hinteren Coverseite

'An emotionallyrewarding novel so succulent with detail that you can almost feel the Tripolisand storms whipping across your face' Claire Allfree, Daily Mail


1929. Tripoli. Liliana is sure she is on the brink of agreat adventure, but what awaits her is not the Mediterranean idyll of cocktailparties, dashing officers and romantic intrigues she imagined. Instead shefinds a world of persecution, repression, corruption and deceptions both greatand small.

Blown about by the winds of fascism and Catholicism, Liliana becomes enmeshedin a dark liaison which has terrible consequences both for her and those sheloves most.

The Fourth Shore is the engrossing and intensely poignant story ofLiliana's journey from Rome to Tripoli to a north London suburb where shebegins to uncover a secret she has buried so deeply that even she is far fromcertain what it is.

'Richly imagined in fine detail' Anthony Cummins, Metro
