The Last Summer at Chelsea Beach

By: Pam Jenoff

Narrated by: Coleen Marlo

For fans of All the Light We Cannot See and The Tattooist of Auschwitz!

From the sandy shores of America to the battered streets of London, one woman's search for love and redemption will defy all odds

Young Adelia Monteforte begins the summer of 1941 aboard a crowded ship bound for America, utterly alone yet free of Fascist Italy. Whisked away to the seaside by her well-meaning aunt and uncle, she basks in the noisy affection of the boisterous Irish Catholic boys next door. And although she adores all four of the Connally brothers, it's the eldest, Charlie, she pines for. But all hopes for a future together are throttled by the creep of war and a tragedy that hits much closer to home.

Grief-stricken, Addie flees—first to Washington and then to war-torn London, where she finds a position at a prestigious newspaper, as well as a chance for a new beginning. But the past always nips at her heels. And in a final, fateful choice, Addie will discover that the only way home may be a path she never suspected.

"The kind of book that absorbs you from the beginning and doesn't let go." —Beatriz Williams, New York Times bestselling author of The Beach at Summerly
