The Beach Trees

Meer over het boek

Julie Holt first knew loss at the age of twelve when her sister disappeared, never to be found. As her once close-knit family began to unravel, Julie-s mother obsessively searched for the girl. When her mother died, Julie took up the search, never letting go of the shred of hope that would never go away. As an adult with a prestigious job in the arts, Julie meets a struggling artist who reminds her so much of her sister, she can't help feeling protective. It is a friendship that begins a long and painful process of healing for Julie, leading her to a house on the Gulf Coast, ravaged by Hurricane Katrina, and to stories of family that take her deep into the past.
