Would you risk your long held dreams for a secluded estate beside an olive grove, a creative paradise, and a mysterious, irresistible newcomer? Set in London and Florence with a third location being ‘any place’ Meryl, a budding writer, and Michael a human rights lawyer, become entangled in the world of international crime. Life will never be quite the same. Will they pick up from where they left, despite the various characters who managed to enter their lives, or will they let go of the safety they once found in each other’s arms? 

A contemporary story of fractured pasts, intriguing encounters, insularity, professional harassment and the capacity to live for others.

 

Born in South Africa during the apartheid era, Mala Naidoo worked as a teacher of English literature in South Africa and Australia. She encourages young people to be ‘moved’ by reading and inspires confidence and compassion through creative expression. From a very young age, Mala was surrounded by books from the English literary canon. She also enjoys biographies, autobiographies and contemporary novels, and believes that a good dose of life experience and fiction has shaped the representation of places, events and characters in her writing.
