Cathy Kelly

Tämä ihmissuhderomaani lämmittää sydäntä kuin kevään ensimmäinen aurinkoinen ilta! Robicheaux’n siskokset Indy, Eden, Savannah ja Rory saavat yllätyksekseen kutsun häihin, kun heidän kymmenen vuotta sitten eronneet vanhempansa ovat päättäneet palata yhdessä avioliiton hellään huomaan. Hääjuhla järjestetään ihastuttavassa hotellissa, jossa siskokset ovat asuneet koko lapsuutensa mutta jonka perhe on joutunut sittemmin myymään. Ensimmäistä kertaa vuosikausiin koko perhe on koolla, eikä mene kauaa, kun vaietut salaisuudet nousevat pintaan. Cathy Kelly on Irlannin suosituimpia kirjailijoita, jonka lämminhenkiset ja viisaat romaanit ovat myyneet miljoonia kappaleita. Kun hän ei ole kirjoittamassa lemmikkiensä vaativat katseet selässään, Kelly lukee ahnaasti, tanssii keittiössä, istuu moottoripyörän kyydissä tai puuhailee jonkin tekstiiliharrastuksensa parissa.

Six people gather on a fabulous Greek island, each one hoping that ten days in the sun, writing their life stories, will magically fix their lives.

Six people gather on a fabulous Greek island, each one hoping that ten days in the sun, writing their life stories, will magically fix their lives.

Six people gather on a fabulous Greek island, each one hoping that ten days in the sun, writing their life stories, will magically fix their lives. Rose Talisman is pinning it all on a fresh start. Five years after her career as a tv therapist ended in one catastrophic instant, she is opening a retreat in Corfu. The understated, luxurious Villa Artemis is surrounded by wild pines and sea views. Just six guests. One week. Time for Rose to help them face their secrets – and move forwards. But Rose has staked everything on the retreat. It has to work – or she loses it all. And people’s secrets have a way of revealing themselves in ways no one expected. Nobody’s past is staying hidden for long… Will that include Rose’s, too? 'A triumph […] vivid and wise and uplifting' Marian Keyes
