Samenvatting

Destined to be THE dark book-club debut of 2023. A compulsive and timely exploration of the complicated nature of memory and trauma, power and consent, victimhood and shame. 'Beautifully written, transportive, and thought-provoking' LUCY CLARKE, author of THE CASTAWAYS 'A mesmerising, unsettling and gripping debut' CATHERINE RYAN HOWARD, author of RUN TIME 'Thought-provoking, timely. The book of the summer' SARAH TURNER, author of STEPPING UP ********** Rachel has loved Alistair since she was seventeen. Even though she hasn't seen him for sixteen years and she's now married to someone else. Even though she was a teenager when they met. Even though he is almost twenty years older than her. Now in her thirties, Rachel has never been able to forget their golden summer together on a remote, sun-trapped Greek island. But as dark and deeply suppressed memories rise to the surface, Rachel begins to understand that Alistair - and the enigmatic, wealthy man he worked for - controlled much more than she ever realized. Rachel has never once considered herself a victim - until now. ********** For fans of GIRL A, MY DARK VANESSA and LUCKIEST GIRL ALIVE. 'Lures you in then shakes you up. A very timely read about consent and control' NIKKI MAY, author of WAHALA 'An absolutely scorching debut deftly mixing the glamour of an island holiday with shadows of coercive control' ALICE CLARK-PLATTS, author of THE FLOWER GIRLS *********** Early readers are already talking about THE GIRLS OF SUMMER: * 'Beautifully written with a tense, emotive plot that will be relatable to so many women' * 'An excellent debut. Raw, real, and gut-wrenchingly familiar' * 'I can see this book being an absolute smash hit' * 'Wow wow wow! I am still thinking about it, it's one of those stories that stays with you' * 'In the age of #MeToo, this book is one that will ring true with so many people' * 'A stunning debut' * 'A compelling read about processing, and the coming to terms with, trauma. Superbly written' **Available to pre-order now**

Hoe controleren en plaatsen wij reviews? Hoe controleren en plaatsen wij reviews?

Negatief, positief, neutraal: we zetten een review altijd online. We controleren wel eerst of ’ie voldoet aan onze reviewvoorwaarden en niet nep is. We controleren ook of ’ie is geschreven door iemand die het artikel heeft gekocht via bol.com en zetten dit er dan bij. De controles gebeuren automatisch, al kijken er soms mensen mee. Bol.com betaalt niet voor reviews. Als een reviewer door een andere partij is vergoed, staat dit in de review zelf.
