Harvest

by Celia Brayfield (Author)

Synopsis

Grace, the lover, clever and passionate, ran away to find new happiness, but can't escape her guilt. Jane, the wife, loves her children, her brilliant career and her French farmhouse, but wakes up crying and alone. Imogen, the daughter, is beautiful and talented, but is also a wild child, hungry for revenge. Three women who all make the same mistake -- loving Michael Knight: a TV star, a public figure, but also, in private, a serial adulterer driven to destroy the women whose love he craves. Now, as friends and family gather to celebrate his birthday, Michael reaps what he has sown.

Media Reviews
'This is by far Brayfield's best book. The fierceness with which she manipulates her characters and plot...grabs the attention' Elizabeth Buchan, SUNDAY TIMES 'HARVEST though heaven knows a good read, is far from trivial. A brilliant textured 'proper' novel...a literary romance featuring the sophisticated English abroad in France.' Fay Weldon, MAIL ON SUNDAY 'HARVEST is cunningly plotted, extremely well-written and compulsively readable.' Beryl Bainbridge 'A great black comedy.' DAILY EXPRESS 'Characters are perceived with a relentlessly clever eye, the domestic details beguile- and the finale will rock the deckchair of the worldliest reader.' SHE 'A cool thriller, cleverly overlaif with issues of power and deception as it heads to its shattering conclusion.' WOMAN'S JOURNAL 'A Haagen-Dazs sundae among holiday reads. It has everything.' DAILY TELEGRAPH 'A cleverly plotted, wicked black comedy, modern storytelling at its most enjoyable. Its pace keeps you turning the pages, yet its insights pull you up.' Susan Crosland, LITERARY REVIEW
