Publisher's Synopsis

Evie Hamilton has a secret. One she doesn't even know about . . . yet.

Evie is the wife of successful, handsome husband Ant and mother of high-achieving, accomplished daughter Anna, and her biggest worry in life is whether or not she can fit a manicure in on her way to fetch Anna from clarinet lessons. She doesn't think about much else outside her own, charmed circle. There simply isn't time.

But all that is about to change. One sunny Oxford morning a letter - a ticking time-bomb - lands on Evie's immaculate doormat and up ends Evie's comfortable life. Something she could never have anticipated has been waiting in the wings to sabotage everything she holds dear, and it's not going away. She will have to reappraise everything in her carefully arranged universe.

But Evie is a fighter and she will fight for what she loves. And in the process, find there is more to her than she thought, and more to her life.

What will remain? What will change for ever? And can a woman's entire world really be as fragile as her best china?
