Overview
It was a summer of love, and a summer of secrets.
She has built the semblance of a good life: a husband who adores her, a daughter she is fiercely proud of, and a home with warmth and love at its heart. However, the truth is she has done things in her past that she can never admit.
One evening, a phone call comes out of the blue. It is a voice from long ago, a man from a past she has tried so hard to hide all these years. He knows who she really is and what she has done. Now, he is dying, and he gives her an ultimatum: either she tells the truth, or he will.
And so we are taken back to that long hot summer of 1976, to a house by the sea on the southern coast of England, where her story begins and where the truth will be revealed . . .
Told in dual narratives that jump back and forth in time, Elliot Wright has crafted an intriguing story with unnerving secrets that unfold through the very last page. Compelling, immersive, and thoroughly surprising, The Secrets We Left Behind is a stunning follow up to the author’s acclaimed UK debut The Things We Never Said.
