<b>At a tuberculosis sanitarium in the Adirondacks, a young tutor falls in love with a mysterious woman who survived the Lusitania disaster.</b><br><br>"<em>Bad Juliet</em> will hold you in its grip from its opening pages, combining <strong>the pacing and twists of a thriller</strong> with the compelling characterizations and masterful prose of <strong>a writer at the top of his form</strong>." -- Nino Ricci, award-winning author of <em>The Origin of Species</em><br><br>Recently jilted by his fiancé, Paul Gascoyne takes a job as a tutor to the patients at the Trudeau Sanitarium in upstate New York. There, in the icebound beauty of the Adirondack Mountains, he finds himself drawn to Sarah Ballard, a beautiful but enigmatic young woman, traumatized by her past aboard the ill-fated ship <em>Lusitania</em>. To rouse her out of her gloom, Paul encourages her to write a memoir.<br><br>As Paul reads her words, it gradually becomes clear that Sarah's memories are a tangle of truth and fiction that he can't begin to unravel. And yet he cannot overcome his attraction to her. When a terrible relapse leaves Sarah worried that she has little time left, she begs Paul to be the one person in the world who will truly know her.
