Reading guide
This is a single standalone novel, so there is no order to follow. Simply start at the first page and read through.
In the present day, journalist Ellie finds a 1960 letter in her newspaper archive and becomes absorbed in the affair it describes, while facing her own romantic complications. Alongside her story runs Jennifer's, set in 1960, as she wakes in hospital after a car accident unable to remember her husband, her friends or herself, until a hidden letter reawakens her memories of a forbidden love.

Description

Jojo Moyes's award-winning novel follows two women whose stories of passion, adultery and loss are woven together across four decades. When journalist Ellie searches her newspaper's archive, she finds a 1960 letter in which a man begs his lover to leave her husband. Its intrigue pulls her in, not least because she is tangled up with a married man of her own.

In 1960, Jennifer wakes in hospital after a car accident with no memory of her husband, her friends or who she used to be. When she finds a hidden letter at home, it brings back the lover she was ready to risk everything for. Real "last letters" are threaded throughout, making this a romance with an ache in it for anyone who believes a handwritten note can change a life.
