Forbidden Places

“Vincenzi does an admirable job of evoking the bustle and fears of wartime England . . . plenty of juicy plot twists and turns to keep readers hooked.” —Booklist

In the English countryside during World War II, Grace settles into a new life with her wealthy husband, but struggles to get along with her sister-in-law, Florence. When she discovers a scandalous secret, her dislike of Florence seems justified. Yet there are things she doesn’t fully understand. And she is puzzled—and frustrated—to learn that Florence’s friend, the stylish, sexy Clarissa, has a past with her husband that is shrouded in mystery, in this “engrossing family drama” from the beloved bestselling author (Glamour).

“With her well-drawn characters and engaging style, Vincenzi keeps things humming.” —People

“Vincenzi writes . . . fast-paced novels with plots and subplots so deftly manipulated that it’s impossible to start reading one and still lead a productive life.” —The Washington Post
