Nights of Rain and Stars

Maeve Binchy

'An absolute joy. No one sweeps you away like Maeve' Veronica Henry

'The perfect summer read' Mail on Sunday


Maeve Binchy at her very best - the superb novel of one summer, and four people whose lives are irrevocably changed.

'The setting is wonderfully seductive . . . Binchy weaves her usual magic . . . Binchy is degrees better than most other novelists and her storytelling ability is second to none' Sunday Express

Four strangers, with nothing in common but a need to escape, meet in a Greek taverna high above the small village of Aghia Anna. From Ireland, America, Germany and England they have each left behind their homes and their old lives, when a shocking tragedy throws them unexpectedly together.

Nights of Rain and Stars is the story of one summer and four people, each with a life in turmoil - and Vonni, the Irish exile who would very much like to help them, but has demons of her own to battle . . .
