A RICH AND STARTLING NOVEL ABOUT A WOMAN WHO MUST FACE A PAST SHEβD RATHER FORGET IN ORDER TO UNCOVER A DANGEROUS LEGACY THAT THREATENS HER FUTURE
Ten years ago, U.S. State Department intelligence officer Jordan Weissβs idyllic experience as a graduate student at Cambridge was shattered when her boyfriend Jared drowned in the River Cam. She swore sheβd never go backβuntil a terminally ill friend asks her to return. Jordan attempts to settle into her new life, taking on an urgent mission beside rakish agent Sebastian Hodges. Just when she thinks thereβs hope for a fresh start, a former college classmate tells her that Jaredβs death was not an accidentβhe was murdered.
Jordan quickly learns that Jaredβs research into World War II had uncovered a shameful secret, but powerful forces with everything to lose will stop at nothing to keep the past buried. Soon, Jordan finds herself in grave peril as she struggles to find the answers that lie treacherously close to home, the truth that threatens to change her life forever, and the love that makes it all worth fighting for. Fast-paced and impossible to put down, Almost Home establishes Pam Jenoff as one of the best new writers in the genre.
