THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER

'A masterpiece' – SUNDAY TELEGRAPH
'Ambitious, demanding and profoundly melancholy' – GUARDIAN

Dr. Robert Hendricks has just received a mysterious invitation. Psychiatrist Alexander Pereira has asked him to stay at his villa on a French island. But what starts out as an intellectual exchange soon becomes a cat and mouse game that brings to the surface a history of war and a lost love that Hendricks had thought buried.

A gripping exploration of the mysteries of memory, Where My Heart Used to Beat is a stunning and thrilling novel of past lives and the indelible scars of love.

'An intelligent and moving examination of the traumas of war' – SCOTSMAN
'Will leave you gulping back sobs' – OBSERVER
