      Nicholas è ferito e deluso. La moglie lo ha tradito e, per fuggire da lei e da un matrimonio che non ha più senso, decide di abbandonare gli agi in cui vive a Dublino e acquistare un vecchio cottage immerso nella selvaggia natura irlandese. La nuova casa, con accanto un frutteto abbandonato da molto tempo, rappresenta una grande sfida per lui, deciso a restaurarla a fondo. Ma fra quelle antiche mura gli accade qualcosa di inspiegabile: è come se avvertisse la presenza eterea ma insistente di una donna la cui voce sembra intrappolata nel rimpianto. Deciso a capire di chi si tratti, Nicholas scopre che all'inizio degli anni Quaranta il cottage era abitato da June Fanning, una donna rimasta sola poco dopo essersi trasferita dall'Inghilterra perché il marito era partito volontario per la guerra. La sua lontana vicenda, così come quella di coloro che la circondano - la sorella Minerva a cui è legatissima, il marito Robert, il vicino Phelim -, si insinua progressivamente nella vita di Nicholas, e a poco a poco prende forma il racconto di una terza persona, senza volto e senza nome. Una donna misteriosa. Chi è e cos'ha in comune con Nicholas e June? Passato e presente si intrecciano e la sua identità viene finalmente alla luce, rivelando come il profondo desiderio d'amore e passione abbia trascinato inesorabilmente tutti i protagonisti verso l'adulterio e segnato il loro destino. Con una scrittura poetica, evocativa e sensuale, Noëlle Harrison si confronta con segreti inconfessabili, sentimenti travolgenti e legami indissolubili mescolando suspense e romanticismo. Ne L'adultera , i destini dei personaggi si fondono in una complessa e intrigante partitura a tre voci, dando vita a una struggente storia d'amore e perdita.

Their mother, Sarah, was so grief-stricken that she did not speak for five years, and her father Joe, sank further into drink-filled rage. Now, as an adult, Eithne is an artist, and tries to remember her sister in her sketches of the dark wooded bogs behind her house. For there was something else about Beatrice that was rarely spoken of in the household, a dark, guilty secret that her disappearance only made worse. And now, almost twenty years later, all could be revealed when a stranger appears. Framed by Eithnes journey to discover the truth about her sister, with the magic and beauty of art running through it, this is a richly compelling, haunting story of family secrets, passion and ultimately redemption.
