Review
PRAISE FOR THE SUMMER HOUSE PARTY: 'A great big satisfying saga full of passionate love, ghastly betrayal and [...] thrilling drama' Daily Mail. 'Fraser keeps the reader hooked with the twists of her protagonists' love affairs, but the real star of this book is her portrait of a disappearing life, as Sonia Haddon and ilk face war with varying degrees of courage' The Sunday Times.
