Description: "It's 1993 and the small seaside town of Kingshaven is looking picture perfect when the peaceful spring sunshine is suddenly shattered by the blast of a bomb that has lain hidden since the war. It is not the town's only long-buried secret. Poised for new adventure, recent graduate Cat Brown sees the story unfolding on the news in London. In Rome, Iris Quinn feels the tug of the place she ran away from thirty years before. In the once-powerful, now crumbling Palace Hotel, disturbing memories are triggered for grande-dame Liliana King. As the millennium approaches and the interwoven mysteries of the past begin to unravel, three generations of women try to make sense of their lives as they search for happiness at the dawn of a new century."--Publisher description.
