Klappentext In picturesque Stockholm, Bell Everhurst is working as a nanny for the perfect family: Hanna and Max Von Greyerz, nine-year-old Linus and four-year-old twins Elise and Tilde. One morning, as she's rushing for the school run, Bell answers the phone - and everything changes. A woman from a clinic asks her to pass on the urgent message that Hanna's husband is awake. Bell is confused. Max left the house just a few minutes earlier. But soon the truth comes tumbling out: Hanna's first husband fell into a coma seven years earlier, following an accident. Now he's awake. And he wants his family back. As the city empties and everyone relocates for the summer to the beautiful tiny islands of the archipelago, they are all in crisis. Old wounds and new loves cannot exist side by side. Someone has to lose. Caught in the middle, Bell tries to hold them all together, but she unwittingly becomes part of the problem. Under the midsummer sun, everything hangs in the balance - until a secret slowly emerges that will decide all their fates.
