At his beautiful French farmhouse, the TV star Michael Knight prepares for his famous summer party. His wife, Jane, loves her children, her own career as a food writer and this holiday home, but has woken up alone and crying too many times. His daughter, Imogen, is at last grown up enough to see her father for what he is and wants revenge. His former lover, Grace, thought she had escaped and made a new life, but Michael is drawing her back. Three women who all made the same mistake – loving a man who lives in a world of his own creation. These are the people who create dreams for others to live in. Michael is a man who cannot love but who believes passionately in his own lies. Loving Michael is loving a dream, a fantasy like the idyllic picture of French farmhouse living which Jane creates for her readers. Now, as friends and family gather to celebrate his birthday, Michael reaps what he has sown. “Sophisticated, well-plotted and cannily conversant with the mechanics of betrayal...this is a deliciously satisfying read.” Sunday Times

Review:
'This is by far Brayfield's best book. The fierceness with which she manipulates her characters and plot...grabs the attention' Elizabeth Buchan, SUNDAY TIMES 'HARVEST though heaven knows a good read, is far from trivial. A brilliant textured 'proper' novel...a literary romance featuring the sophisticated English abroad in France.' Fay Weldon, MAIL ON SUNDAY 'HARVEST is cunningly plotted, extremely well-written and compulsively readable.' Beryl Bainbridge 'A great black comedy.' DAILY EXPRESS 'Characters are perceived with a relentlessly clever eye, the domestic details beguile- and the finale will rock the deckchair of the worldliest reader.' SHE 'A cool thriller, cleverly overlaif with issues of power and deception as it heads to its shattering conclusion.' WOMAN'S JOURNAL 'A Haagen-Dazs sundae among holiday reads. It has everything.' DAILY TELEGRAPH 'A cleverly plotted, wicked black comedy, modern storytelling at its most enjoyable. Its pace keeps you turning the pages, yet its insights pull you up.' Susan Crosland, LITERARY REVIEW
