Improvising Carla
(Pocket Books 2002 pbk ISBN 0-671-02908-8)

A chiller of a thriller about real women … beautifully crafted, subtle and good.
Frances Fyfield
 
A darkly gripping psychological tale that cannot fail to hook. A haunting and completely credible tale. I thoroughly recommend it.
The Times
coverpic of Improvising Carla

As the sun rises over an idyllic Greek island, Carla Finch lies dead on a lonely road. Beside her is Helen North, the only person who knows how Carla died.

photo - Corfu coast Back in England Helen is haunted by remorse and guilt. She is drawn to Carla's friends, children and above all, to Daniel, the man Carla loved. But when a figure from her island nightmare arrives, he brings with him questions only Helen can answer. Can she trust her own judgement? Will she ever learn the truth about Carla?
This book was partly inspired by the island of Corfu. Although I didn't visit it until a few years ago, I had heard about it all my life from my mother, who lived there before the war with her first husband, Lawrence Durrell.
