The End Of Summer

by Rosamunde Pilcher Narrated by Jilly Bond

Overview

In #1 New York Times bestselling author Rosamunde Pilcher's The End of Summer, a woman revisits her home and her heartbreak when she is reunited with the one she loved and lost-and could love again.

After years in the United States, Jane returns to the tranquil Scottish estate, Elvie, where she spent a magical childhood. Memories of Elvie had always summoned the image of Sinclair, the rakish man Jane had once dreamed of marrying, but now that she is home, she finds Sinclair a different man. His charm has a purpose, and Jane can no longer trust him...or herself.

Editorial Reviews

Library Journal

Pilcher ( The Blackberry Day and Other Stories , Audio Reviews, LJ 4/15/93) always spins a satisfying, tightly written story. Here, Californian Jane Marsh pays a visit to Elvie, her family's estate in the Scottish Highlands. Soon after arriving, she falls under the spell of her dashing ne'er-do-well cousin, Sinclair. He plots to marry Jane and sell off Elvie once she inherits it. Standing quietly in the background is lawyer David Stewart, who offers a quiet contrast to Sinclair's flamboyant lifestyle. Several tragedies and the unveiling of some family secrets bring about a logical conclusion to the love triangle. Pilcher's vivid descriptions of Scotland sound like a travel brochure, and actress Geraldine James's clear, well-paced reading serves to further captivate the listener. Recommended for most collections.-- Linda Maki, Hennepin Cty. Lib. System, Minnetonka, Minn.
