'In our family, secrets were buried deep like treasure, never to be spoken of...'
1974. Melike should be happy: school is shut and her parents have stopped hosting parties for their rowdy political friends. But she's scared.

But despite her successful career as an art historian and a husband who adores her, she has always felt a lingering discontent. When she meets mysterious - and extremely handsome - stranger Petro, Melike feels her fortunes changing. But Petro isn't who he says he is. And when Melike uncovers his true identity, she also lays bare a lifetime of hidden pasts...
With a backdrop of the Turkish army's occupation of Cyprus in 1974, Summer Heat explores family secrets, tangled identities and one woman's place in her country's devastating history.
