Guillaume Musso

    6 juni 1974

    Guillaume Musso is een gevierde Franse auteur wiens kinderlijke passie voor lezen een levenslange droom om te schrijven aanwakkerde. Zijn verhalen zijn diepgaand beïnvloed door zijn vormende ervaringen in het buitenland, met name zijn tijd in New York, wat vaak het decor vormt voor zijn meeslepende plots. Musso creëert meesterlijk spannende verhalen die resoneren bij een breed publiek, wat blijkt uit de wijdverbreide vertaling van zijn succesvolle romans. Zijn werk verkent vaak thema's als liefde, verlies en de zoektocht naar betekenis, onderscheidend door een vlot tempo en verrassende wendingen.

      Als twee mobieltjes verwisseld worden, zet dit een reeks gebeurtenissen in gang die niemand had kunnen voorspellen… Madeline en Jonathan kennen elkaar niet en zouden elkaar ook nooit meer tegengekomen zijn. Ware het niet dat ze na een botsing op het vliegveld elkaars telefoon hebben ingepakt. Maar als ze achter die vergissing komen, zijn de twee al 10.000 kilometer van elkaar verwijderd: zij is bloemist in Parijs, hij runt een restaurant in San Francisco… Het duurt niet lang voordat ze toegeven aan de verleiding om in elkaars telefoon te kijken. Dit leidt tot een schokkende ontdekking: hun levens zijn met elkaar verbonden door een geheim waarvan ze dachten dat het voor altijd begraven zou blijven. Er volgt een zoektocht die uitmondt in een spannende race tegen de klok – en die leidt van Frankrijk via Engeland naar Amerika.

      Emma ha trent'anni e vive a New York. Ogni giorno con passo svelto e leggero si destreggia tra i tavoli di uno dei più prestigiosi ristoranti della città, dove lavora come sommelier consigliando e servendo vini a selezionatissimi clienti. In amore ha dato tanto, forse troppo, a persone che non lo meritavano ma non per questo ha smesso di cercare l'uomo della sua vita. Matthew invece abita a Boston e insegna filosofia all'Università di Harvard. Ha perduto sua moglie in un terribile incidente e da allora ha cresciuto da solo la figlia di quattro anni. Nella sua vita ha imparato a non dare niente per scontato, soprattutto la felicità. I due si conoscono, per caso, grazie a internet, e iniziano a scriversi via mail, finché un giorno decidono di incontrarsi. Si danno appuntamento in un piccolo ristorante italiano a Manhattan. Lo stesso giorno alla stessa ora, ognuno dei due varca la porta di quel ristorante. Avvolti dall'atmosfera intima e accogliente del locale, vengono accompagnati allo stesso tavolo ma... non si incroceranno mai. Com'è possibile? Uno scherzo del destino? Vittime di un intrigo ai confini della realtà, Matthew e Emma ben presto si renderanno conto che non si tratta soltanto di un semplice appuntamento mancato...
