El Palacio de Papel

Before anyone wakes up, on a perfect August morning, Elle heads for a swim in the splendid pond at Paper Palace, the house in the woods of Cape Cod where her family has spent their summers for generations. From the porch, Elle can still see the uncleaned table from dinner; Empty wine glasses, candle wax on the tablecloth, echoes of the laughter of her family and acquaintances. But this morning is different: Last night Elle and her childhood best friend, Jonas, sneaked off to have a passionate encounter against the outer wall of the house while their partners chatted inside. Decades of memories, secrets, and lies have led Elle to this day. Now, for the next twenty-four hours, she will have to choose between the life she has built with her wonderful husband, Peter, and the one she envisioned with her first love, Jonas, if a tragic event hadn't changed him. all forever.
