En el verano de 1976, en Londres, una ola de calor sin precedentes azota la ciudad. Robert Riordan le dice a su esposa Gretta que va a comprar el periódico a la esquina, pero nunca regresa. La búsqueda de Robert reúne a los hijos de Gretta: dos hermanas distanciadas y un hermano al borde del divorcio, cada uno con diferentes ideas sobre dónde podría haber ido su padre. Ninguno de ellos sospecha que su madre podría tener una explicación que ni siquiera ahora puede compartir. 'Instructions for a Heatwave' de Maggie O'Farrell fue preseleccionada para el Costa Novel Award 2013 y fue un bestseller del Sunday Times Top Ten (2013).
