Desde el porche, Elle aún puede ver la mesa sin recoger de la cena; copas de vino vacías, cera de velas en el mantel, ecos de las risas de sus familiares y conocidos. Pero esta mañana es diferente: la noche anterior Elle y su mejor amigo de la infancia, Jonas, se escabulleron para tener un apasionado encuentro contra la pared exterior de la casa mientras sus parejas charlaban en el interior.\nDécadas de recuerdos, secretos y mentiras han conducido a Elle hasta este día. Ahora, durante las siguientes veinticuatro horas, tendrá que elegir entre la vida que ha construido con su maravilloso marido, Peter, y la que imaginó con su primer amor, Jonas, si un trágico suceso no lo hubiera cambiado todo para siempre.\nENGLISH DESCRIPTION\nREESE'S BOOK CLUB PICK\nINSTANT #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER\nTHE PAPER PALACE IS:\n“Filled with secrets, love, lies and a summer beach house.
