A #1 internationally bestselling novel of family betrayals, forbidden love, and the turmoil of the Spanish Civil War -- from the author of The Island.

"A crackling historical romance mixed with a dash of family secrets and a splash of female self-discovery." -- Time Out London

Sonia knows nothing of Granada's shocking past, but ordering a simple cup of coffee in a quiet café will lead her into the extraordinary tale of a family's fight to survive the horror of the Spanish Civil War.

Seventy years earlier, in the Ramírez family's café, Concha and Pablo's children relish an atmosphere of hope. Antonio is a serious young teacher, Ignacio a flamboyant matador, and Emilio a skilled musician. Their sister, Mercedes, is a spirited girl whose sole passion is dancing, until she meets Javier and an obsessive love affair begins. But Spain is a country in turmoil. In the heat of civil war, everyone must take a side and choose whether to submit, to fight, or to attempt escape.

"An accessible, compelling page-turner. It tugs the heartstrings but also gives you a crash course in a large part of twentieth-century history." -- Sunday Express (UK)

"The Return should be required holiday reading for anyone going to Spain." -- Daily Mail (UK)
