A lost girl. A mysterious house in Ireland. An invitation that changes everything. Twenty years ago, at the end of a long hot Irish summer, three sisters submerge themselves in the cool lake at their home, Swan Hall. As Maeve and Aisling watch their beautiful younger sister Nuala laughing and splashing, droplets of water clinging to her dark hair, it is hard to hide their envy of her. But later that day, when Nuala drowns, they are devastated. Now , as Iris scatters the ashes of her beloved mother Aisling onto the golden leaves of Central Park, she feels very alone. But then hope comes in an invitation across the sea to Ireland from her mother's sister, Maeve - the sister Aisling left behind and never spoke to again. Swan Hall is more than Iris could ever have dreamed, sitting on the edge of a lake, full of history. But its dark corridors and staircases are caked in dust, and Iris feels a sense of unease. And then she finds a diary - Nuala's diary from the long hot summer she disappeared. Iris' mother never mentioned Nuala. Why would she have lied? As Iris reads Nuala's slanting script, she uncovers dark secrets and shocking betrayals, and she begins to wonder: was Nuala's death really an accident? Can Iris find the truth, and will it change everything she knows about her mother... and herself? A completely compelling and gripping read about the heartbreak and secrets that tore three sisters apart. Fans of Lucinda Riley and Louise Douglas will love The Last Summer in Ireland.
