That Summer

This current and delectably twisting tale about intrigue, secrets, and the transformational power of female friendship, set on gorgeous Cape Cod, is written by the #1 New York Times bestselling author of Big Summer.

Sleep is elusive for Daisy Shoemaker. She should be happy with her successful food company, her busy volunteer schedule, and her lovely suburban Philadelphia house. However, her adolescent daughter may be a pain; her spouse can be aloof, her job can seem unimportant, and she has many acquaintances but no true friends. Daisy is aware that she has it nice, however. Why, therefore, does she stay up late?

Daisy is getting misdirected emails intended for Diana Starling, a lady whose email address is only one punctuation point away from her own, as she works to figure out why she is so unhappy. Diana chairs meetings and Daisy drives the carpools. Diana is planning to reorganise firms as Daisy prepares supper. Daisy's modest life is quite different from Diana's glitzy, elegant, single life. An apology and an invitation result in a meeting and friendship between the two ladies. However, as they approach, we discover that their relationship was not entirely coincidental. What does this other lady want with Daisy, and who IS she?

Written with Jennifer Weiner's trademark humour and perceptive insights, THAT SUMMER is a narrative about enduring friendships, facing our futures, and surviving our pasts, set against the rugged scenery of the Outer Cape and the well-manicured Main Line of Philadelphia.
