Anna Hunt has lost her memory and is on the run. From who and what she is unsure, but trapped in the present she seems certain of only one thing β€” she is somehow linked to the stolen painting currently being restored in the National Gallery.

In a wonderfully unsettling first novel, All Summer, Claire Kilroy manages to combine beautiful, poetic prose with the menacing atmosphere of a thriller as she explores themes of memory, violence, art, and escape.

"A compelling read. The surprises are real and yet so subtly tracked... It's a thriller, a confession, and a love story framed by a meditation on the arts." β€” Margaret Reynolds, The Times
