Last Time They Met from highbrow dealers trading inFrom the last time Linda and Thomas meet, at a charmless hotel in a distant city, to the moment, thirty five years earlier, when a chance encounter on a rocky beach binds them fatefully together, this hypnotically compelling novel unfolds a tale of intense passion, drama, and suspense.
