Islands: A page turning story of love, secrets and regrets

'Islands' is an emotion charged story of love, secrets and regrets, set against the real-life events of 2008 that shocked the beautiful island of Jersey. If you enjoyed Jo Jo Moyes 'Me Before You' for its gritty mix of romance and life’s hard knocks - then you’ll love 'Islands'.

Jersey born, Katherine, is a successful business woman living and working in London. She’s estranged from her husband and family and hiding from the pain of failed motherhood.

When a major murder and child abuse investigation launches in Jersey, the news shocks the island and brings the world’s media to its idyllic shores.

As the island of Jersey faces up to its hidden past, Katherine is forced to face up to hers. A letter arrives from the dying mother of her teenage friend – the friend whose death Katherine caused 32 years before.

She knows she must return home and tell the truth; but Katherine isn’t the only one with secrets…

Will the truth heal or destroy her? Will she ever come to terms with what drove her away from the man she loved and the sister that needs her?
