The Lake of Dreams\See der Träume, englische Ausgabe
With revelations that prove as captivating as the deceptions at the
heart of her bestselling phenomenon Kim Edwards now gives us the
story of a woman's homecoming, a family secret, and the old
house that holds the key to the true legacy of a family. At a
crossroads in her life, Lucy Jarrett returns home from Japan, only
to find herself haunted by her father's unresolved death a
decade ago. Old longings stirred up by Keegan Fall, a local glass
artist who was once her passionate first love, lead her into the
unexpected. Late one night, as she paces the hallways of her
family's rambling lakeside house, she discovers, locked in a
window seat, a collection of objects that first appear to be
useless curiosities, but soon reveal a deeper and more complex
family past. As Lucy discovers and explores the traces of her
lineage from an heirloom tapestry and dusty political tracts to a
web of allusions depicted in stained-glass windows throughout
upstate New York-the family story she has always known is
shattered, Lucy's quest for the truth reconfigures her
family's history, links her to a unique slice of the
suffragette movement, and yields dramatic insights that embolden
her to live freely. With surprises at every turn, brimming with
vibrant detail, "The Lake of Dreamsis" an arresting saga
in which every element emerges as a carefully place piece of the
puzzle that's sure to enthrall the millions of readers.
