Digital Book Club - May 2025
This month’s Digital Book Club title is The Love Letter by Lucinda Riley.
1995, London. Sir James Harrison was one of the greatest actors of his generation. But, when he passes away, he leaves a secret so shocking, so devastating that it could rock the English establishment to its very core.
Joanna Haslam is an ambitious young journalist, assigned to cover the legendary actor’s funeral. But Joanna stumbles on something dark beneath the glamour: the mention of a letter Sir James left behind, the contents of which have been desperately concealed for over seventy years. As Joanna peels back the veil of lies that has shrouded this secret, she realizes that there are other forces at work.
The Love Letter is available on BorrowBox as an eBook and eAudiobook with no waiting.
