THE NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER FROM THE AUTHOR OF WATER FOR ELEPHANTS.
A love story set in a remote village in the Scottish Highlands at the end of WWII, now in paperback. From the author of "Water For Elephants", which sold more than 10 million copies. '...the only fault I can find with this book is that I've already finished it.' Jodi Picoult
In her
stunning new novel, Gruen returns to the kind of storytelling she excelled at in
Water for Elephants: a historical timeframe in an unusual setting with a moving love story.
Think Scottish Downton Abbey... Gruen's impeccable historical research brings the plot down to earth and grounds the larger-than-life characters. Her narrative speaks directly to the reader and is without fuss or ceremony.
Intriguing and, at times,
suspenseful,
At the Water's Edge is a
compelling tale of love, loss and the resilience of the human spirit
