The Promise

The Promise Synopsis

'A stunning novel that will break your heart into little pieces and then glue it back together again' - Milly Johnson, bestselling author of Same Time Next Week

The Promise is a unforgettable story about finding love, hope and joy in even the darkest moments, by the Sunday Times bestseller Lucy Diamond, author of The Secrets of Happiness.

When faced with the sudden death of his brother, Dan's mission is clear. He puts together a project to help pick up the pieces and support his grieving sister-in-law Zoe, plus her young children. This is Dan's promise - to ensure his family's happiness, and to try and live up to the man his brother was.

But tying up loose ends brings a shocking secret to light, and calls into question everything Dan knew about his older brother. With more than just his promise on the line, Dan is faced with an ultimatum: Should he tell the truth and risk his family's fragile happiness, or will his brother's secrets end up becoming his own?
