Critics Review
A lovely novel that I hugely enjoyed. I envy Karen Swan’s skill to evoke a landscape and a very different past so effortlessly. The love story was all that one would wish and the characters are terrific – Elizabeth Buchan, author of Against Her Nature
This sweeping love story gripped us from the start, so we can’t wait for the next in the series. Best historical romance – Independent on The Last Summer
A dramatic start to a gripping new series set on the Scottish island of St Kilda. The Last Summer is meticulously researched and beautifully told by one of our most prolific and talented writers. It contains all the ingredients of a wonderfully satisfying read: love, passion, drama, violence, menace and peril, and characters you fall in love with – and some you hate! Happily, this is the start of a series so your longing for more will be fulfilled – Santa Montefiore, author of Flappy Investigates on The Last Summer
