WHEN I WAS YOUNG

The new Daphne duMaurier!

France, 1950. When I was young I went to France and I fell in love. Eleanor is seventeen when she goes to stay on a vineyard in the Loire Valley. But the beauty of her surroundings is at odds with the family who live there. It is a family torn apart by the terrible legacy of war, and poisoned by the secrets they keep. Despite his forbidding manner, Eleanor is drawn to Etienne, the dark and brooding owner, though his wife's malicious behaviour overshadows everyone's lives. But when death comes to the vineyard, Eleanor finds her faith in her new-found love is tested to the limits.
