The stunning new novel from the author of the bestselling Secrets of the Tides. A captivating story of secrets, tragedy, lies and betrayal.
No one knew one lost year would cast such a long shadow...
On a sultry summer's day in 1980, five friends stumble upon an abandoned lakeside cottage hidden deep in the English countryside. For Kat and her friends, it offers an escape; a chance to drop out for a while, with lazy summer days by the lake and intimate winter evenings around the fire. But as the seasons change, tensions begin to rise and when an unexpected visitor appears at their door, nothing will be the same again ...
Three decades later, Lila arrives at the same remote cottage. With her marriage in crisis, she finds solace in renovating the tumbledown house. Little by little she wonders about the previous inhabitants. How did they manage in such isolation? Why did they leave in such a hurry, with their belongings still strewn about? Most disturbing of all, why can't she shake the feeling that someone might be watching her?
Hannah Richell's Secrets of the Tides was one of the most widely praised fiction debuts of 2012. Her new novel is an equally captivating story of secrets, tragedy, lies and betrayal told with the same sure touch and ability to capture the light and dark of relationships.

Recensioni della critica
An engrossing and clever tale.
A slow-burning drama, with several mysteries furled tightly inside one another ... [Richell] is an astute storyteller and knows exactly how to reel in readers and keep them hooked.
A tale of deceit and betrayal that will have you riveted right up to the final page. Clever, enthralling and at times even menacing.
Past and present are cleverly interwoven in this moving and compelling tale. Engrossing.
The Shadow Year shows [Richell] developing the storytelling skills that made her first book stand out from the crowd of commercial women's fiction.
The ending is terrific ... it's a gallop to the finish ... her second novel will hit the high spots, as did her first.
A page turner with a chilling and unexpected mystery at its heart. This is a story of resolution - all strands of the plot are neatly tied, plenty of cryptic clues are scattered throughout to keep readers guessing right to the end.
A captivating story of familial tragedy propagated by lies and betrayal. Richell's excellent page turner will have you hooked.
The Shadow Year casts a spell over readers ... Utterly captivating.
It is simply everything a book should be - it's a fantastic page-turner with dual story lines that impact each other. The description is rich but doesn't slow the pace; the characters are multi-faceted, flawed and believable. 10/10
