Genre: Romantic thriller
Release Date: 13th January 2017
Publisher: Acorn Independent Press
Kate is living an idyllic life in the Kent countryside until she falls in love with her new neighbour, Nick. She still loves her husband, Alastair, and she doesn’t want to choose. Inevitably, she has to, but escaping with Nick to his château in southern France proves to be the worst decision of her life.
The betrayal of her beloved husband, Alastair, leaves Kate racked with guilt, but things are only going to get worse. She never imagined how fiercely loyal Alastair’s best friend, Richard, would prove to be . . . nor the devastating consequences of his loyalty.
Instead of the new start that she’d hoped for, Kate’s life at the château descends into a nightmare, taking her to the brink of despair . . . and when you’re desperate you’ll do anything.
What starts as a romance soon takes a much darker turn as the dramatic and unpredictable plot unfolds, twisting and turning, always with the château at its centre.
The novel captures the essence of rural France, from the descriptions of the countryside and villages to the insights into the lives of the locals and in-comers alike.
An ideal holiday read, A Château for Sale is also a cautionary tale for anyone dreaming of starting a new life in the sun!

About Carrie Parker
Born in Yorkshire, Carrie Parker graduated from Royal Holloway College, University of London, with a degree in chemistry and no idea of a career. An extended road trip across Europe and as far east as Iran convinced her that the career had to involve travelling the world. Eventually, after gaining a PhD in biochemistry and some time spent working as an editorial assistant on a science journal, she took a job in New Zealand. Returning to the UK a few years later, via south-east Asia, she began her career in overseas development which lasted for over 20 years and took her all over the world. On the first of many working trips to India she met her husband and in the late 1990s they moved to south west France where they lived for several years, working as consultants. Returning to the UK, they split their time between East Sussex and Crete.
Writing has always been an important part of Carrie’s work and, whilst in Crete, she started to write fiction. In 2015, now settled on the beach in East Sussex, she decided to write full time. The result is ‘A Château for Sale’, published in early 2017. Her second novel, set in New Zealand and Crete, is expected to be published early in 2018.
