Description

Thrilling and tantalising, the repercussions of a bisexual love triangle resurface 20 years on.  

‘Every day in Paris carries proof that love exists, in the air, on the streets and behind closed doors. Just not mine.’

When Clémentine and Édouard’s last child leaves home, the cracks in their marriage become impossible to ignore.
