Je to jen další obyčejná středa, dokud v redakci nezazvoní telefon a ze sluchátka se neozve děsivá výhružka: „Vezmu na tebe ocelovou strunu.“ Novinářka Alice Hendersonová je přesvědčená, že to není osobní. Že se jedná o útok na celé noviny. Brzy však pochopí, že opak je pravdou. Policejní vyšetřování nikam nevede, a tak Alicin přítel najímá soukromého detektiva Matthewa Hilla, aby na ni dával pozor. Situace se i tak s každým dnem vyostřuje. Někdo ji pronásleduje, ale proč? Někdo chce, aby trpěla, ale za co? Možná se někoho dotkla v některém ze svých článků? Alice je rozhodnutá zachovat chladnou hlavu, někdy je ale strach silnější než zdravý rozum…

Mit ihrem berührenden Debüt-Roman hat die erfolgreiche englische Journalistin und TV-Moderatorin Teresa Driscoll eine zu Herzen gehende Mutter-Tochter-Geschichte vorgelegt. Ihr hoch emotionales Buch verbindet ernste Themen wie Trauer-Bewältigung und Krankheit mit einer bezaubernden Liebes- und Selbstfindungs-Geschichte, in der ein liebevoll gemachtes Erinnerungsbuch mit Rezepten und Lebensweisheiten eine zentrale Rolle spielt. Wie fühlt es sich an, wenn die Mutter ohne Abschied geht? Auch 17 Jahre nach deren Tod ist Melissa zutiefst verunsichert. Gerade hat sie den Heiratsantrag ihres Freundes Sam abgelehnt, obwohl sie ihn innig liebt. Da bekommt sie ein Buch zugestellt. Von ihrer Mutter. Ein Buch, das Melissa lehren kann, sich selbst zu vertrauen und den Menschen, die sie liebt. "Unterhaltung, wie es sie sonst nur noch einer Cecilia Ahern gelingen würde - seit 'P. S. ich liebe Dich' hat es kein so herzzerreißend schönes Debüt mehr gegeben. [...] Zwischen den Buchdeckeln findet man Emotionen pur, und außerdem Erzählkunst in Perfektion. Die britische Autorin schreibt Geschichten, in die man sich einfach verlieben muss." Literaturmarkt. info

Doveva essere il loro segreto. Non avrebbero mai dovuto raccontare la verità su ciò che avevano fatto. Trent’anni dopo, Beth e Sally sono quasi riuscite a lasciarsi il passato alle spalle. Hanno perso i contatti con Carol, ma il patto tra di loro è ancora valido e, nonostante gli incubi continuino a tormentarle, non hanno mai parlato dell’accaduto con anima viva. Quando però novità scioccanti minacciano di riportare a galla la verità, Beth e Sally capiscono che non è più possibile far finta di nulla e assumono un investigatore privato per rintracciare Carol, ormai diventata un’estranea, prima che il loro crimine venga scoperto. Ora non sono più tre adolescenti spaventate. Adesso hanno tutto da perdere. Specialmente Beth, che intende proteggere la sua famiglia a ogni costo. E persino la promessa di non rivelare mai l’accaduto potrebbe essere messa in discussione. Ma c’è qualcuno che le osserva ed è disposto a fare qualunque cosa per impedire che parlino.
