Publisher's summary

Her award-winning novel, After You’d Gone, established Maggie O’Farrell as a master of psychological depth and supple prose. In My Lover’s Lover she has crafted a haunting pause-resister.

When Lily slips on the sidewalk outside a London gallery and literally falls at the feet of a stranger, Marcus, the attraction is instant and electric. Within a week, she is sharing this magnetic yet elusive architect’s waterfront loft and sleeping in the room that belonged to his girlfriend, Sinead, about whom he will only say that “she’s no longer...with us”. But there lingers a distinct presence, of a woman who seems to have disappeared abruptly - leaving behind a single sexy dress in the closet, a puzzling mark on the wall, and the suffocating scent of jasmine.

As Lily falls ever more deeply in love with Marcus, Sinead’s aura consumes her with fear and obsession that spark a drama of passion and betrayal

Hmmm

I love this author, but I didn’t enjoy this book. Just couldn’t get into it.

Beautiful writer

It’s a fun read. Maybe not her best book and yet such interesting images. I love her writing.

Kind of a pointless waste of time

I am a Maggie O’Farrell fan. I think this is far from her best work.
