Women's Fiction
Theresa is desperate for a change. Forced into early
retirement, fed up with babysitting her bossy daughter's
obnoxious children, she sells her Highgate house and moves
to the picture-perfect town of Bellevue-sur-Mer, just
outside Nice.
With its beautiful villas, its
bustling cafes and shimmering cerulean sea, the village
sparkles like a diamond on the French Mediterranean coast.
Once the hideaway of artists and writers, it is now home to
the odd rock icon and Hollywood movie star, and, as Theresa
soon discovers, a close-knit set of expats. There's Carol,
the infinitely glamorous American and her doting husband
David; the erstwhile British TV star Sally; the ferocious
Sian and her wayward Australian poet husband; the sharply
witty Zoe with her strangely youthful face and penchant for
white wine †“ and the suave Brian who catches Theresa's
eye.
As Theresa settles to the gentle rhythm of
seaside life she embraces her new-found friendships and
freedom. However, life is never quite as simple as it seems
and as skeletons start to fall out of several closets,
Theresa begins to wonder if life on the French Riviera is
quite as nice as it first appeared.
