Lovers' Knots: a hundred year novel |
Ray, a young artist, is haunted
by the memory of his mother, Molly, in her dazzling golden dress, and
the tragedy of her story. He guards his past from his lover, Martine.
When Ray disappears mysteriously on the streets of Paris, Martine embarks
on a search for him, desperately seeking to understand him. Thread by
thread the secrets, stories and intrigue of his family unravel. From the
bestselling author of Lovers' Knots comes this compelling novel
that sweeps from Australia's seascapes to the streets of Paris and Sydney,
across three generations.
