Fischer Taschenbücher: Frauen aus guter Familie

Viac o knihe

Jean White, recently widowed and traveling alone in Europe for the first time, feels a sense of renewal reminiscent of her youth. Once a spirited girl who became a war correspondent against her military family's wishes, she settled down with Al White but not without experiencing life. Her daughter, Diane, skillfully balances her burgeoning jewelry business with family life until the FBI's unexpected visit regarding her mother disrupts their routine. Meanwhile, Diane's daughter, Julia, a student at Gressex Academy, is deeply in love with Sam Weyborn, willing to risk everything for their relationship despite her mother's concerns. This generational tale weaves together the lives of three women—grandmother, mother, and daughter—each facing pivotal moments and uncovering secrets that trace back to World War II and significant events of the century. Their journeys of self-discovery are dramatic, heart-wrenching, and ultimately healing, forging bonds that redefine their relationships. Nancy Thayer's latest work offers a richly textured narrative that resonates with women of all ages, continuing her legacy of compelling storytelling.
