Winner of the Prix Roman France Télévisions
The sun-baked coast of Brittany, where the affluent French spend long days basking in the summer heat, provides the perfect setting for a family holiday. So when a handsome blonde stranger unexpectedly interrupts this holiday to introduce himself as an old school friend of their son, Philip, he is welcomed with open arms. Is it the seductive heat that dispels their caution? Or the reassuring crisp, white attire in which he greets them? While the family await Philip's imminent arrival, Boris is embraced into their fold and no one seems to notice as he carefully exerts a powerful influence over them all.
UV is a literary suspense novel that will chill the reader even as they are lulled by the hazy heat of summer.
