There is a heatwave across Europe.

Goose and his three sisters gather at the family's house by Lake Orta in Piedmont, Italy. Their father, a famous artist, has recently remarried a much younger woman and decamped to Italy to finish his masterpiece. Now he is dead. And when they arrive there is no sign of his new wife or his final painting.

Alhough the siblings have always been close, the things they learn that summer - about themselves, their father and their new stepmother - will drive them apart before they can come to any kind of understanding of what their father's legacy truly is.

Wonderfully atmospheric and suspenseful, this is at heart a novel about family, about sibling relationships: what holds a family together and what might fracture it forever.
