Beatriz Williams: Cocoa Beach LP, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

France, 1917. Burdened by a dark family secret, Virginia Fortescue joins the Red Cross as an ambulance driver on the battlefields of the Western Front, where she meets a charismatic British army surgeon who wins her heart. But Captain Simon Fitzwilliam's past has its own secrets, and as the war ends, Virginia leaves their marriage and returns to New York, heartbroken and pregnant.

Florida, 1922. Newly widowed, Virginia arrives in the tropical boomtown of Cocoa Beach to settle her estranged husband's estate, and discovers a dazzling world of citrus groves, white beaches, and rumrunners. But Virginia senses a predatory presence beneath the surface of this oasis. The more she learns about Simon's life, the more she fears that the dangers that led to his death may now threaten her life, and their daughter's as well . . .
