Anne Louvet needs to escape her past, to escape Paris. The Hotel du Lion d'Or and the sea air promise a fresh start. But when she falls into the arms of married veteran Charles Hartmann, she will have to reckon with an all-consuming passion and the secrets that could undo their love.

The Girl at The Lion D'Or is a bewitching tale of romance, trust and obsession from a master storyteller.

Praise for Girl At The Lion d'Or

A survival story with great atmosphere… Endlessly fascinating

TOM CONTI

[A] story of restrained emotions played out in a period setting among picturesque locations . . . Faulks gives every sign of being a real novelist, who thinks and feels through the written word
