When twenty-one year old Joy meets handsome naval officer Edward at an ex-pat party in 1950s Hong Kong, the last thing she expects is to fall in love. Quickly wedded, she leaves to travel the world with her new husband. But she soon discovers that married life isn't all that it seems . . .
In 1980, Joy's young daughter Kate mysteriously flees the family home. Fifteen years later, Kate's own daughter Sabine leaves London in search of grandparents she has never known. When the family is finally reunited, hidden tensions come to the surface, uncovering a dark secret which has been deeply buried for years.
En interessant historie med interessante personer, men ikke helt på højde med nogen af forfatterens andre bøger som jeg har læst. Jeg manglede lidt i personskildringerne specielt mht Kate og til dels også Joy. Jeg følte ikke, at jeg lærte dem så godt at kende som jeg kunne ønske mig. Men det er stadig en bog der er værd at læse
