'Witty, hilarious, astringent, devastating - her impeccable style can do anything and with seemingly effortless ease' Neel Mukherjee
Much to the disapproval of her friends, Kate Heron marries handsome, feckless Dermot, a man ten years her junior. When Charles, her old friend, visits with his his beautiful daughter, Kate watches happily as their two families are drawn together. Although she finds Charles' presence reassuringly familiar, slowly she becomes aware of subtle undercurrents that begin to disturb the calm surface of their friendship. Before long, even Kate cannot ignore the gathering storm . . .

'Elizabeth Taylor has an eye as sharply all-seeing as her prose is elegant - even the humdrum becomes astonishing when told in language that always aims for descriptive integrity, without a cliché in sight' Daily Telegraph

'When you've finished In a Summer Season, you are totally fired up to read every book that Taylor ever wrote' Val Hennessy, Daily Mail

Introduced by Elisabeth Russell Taylor
