Synopsis:
When George and Sabine Harwood arrive in Trinidad from England George is immediately seduced by the beguiling island. But Sabine feels isolated, heat-fatigued, and ill at ease. Her only solace is her growing fixation with Eric Williams, the charismatic leader of Trinidad's new national party, to whom she pours out all her hopes and fears for the future in letters that she never brings herself to send.
As the years progress, George and Sabine's marriage endures for better and for worse. When George discovers Sabine's cache of letters, he realises just how many secrets she's kept from him - and he from her - over the decades. And he is seized by an urgent, desperate need to prove his love for her...

I bought this book from a charity shop and it sat on my shelf for months. I only discovered it was a book crossing book when I started reading it. Really enjoyed it and will send it on to my friend who owns a bookshop in France in the hope that it reaches more people.
