Produktbeschreibung
Meryem has learned to look out for number one. Abducted as a teenager from England to Turkey, thirty years later she is finally free to live life on her own terms. She is divorced and wealthy, working a lucrative job in Dubai, when a whispered confession from her dying father turns her world upside down, and sets her on a path to discover the truth. The first step is a return to London, and her childhood friends, Alma and Sammy, with whom she embarks upon an impromptu 80s weekend, complete with a George Michael look-a-like, George Might-Be. But the women, once so close, struggle to reconnect as forgotten memories and shocking revelations surrounding Meryem's abduction tear open unhealed wounds, threatening to destroy any remnant of their old friendship. Beautifully and boldly written, Cary J Hansson merges history, everyday circumstances and aching tragedy into an unforgettable narrative.Back to Her Future is the compelling first novel in The Gen X Series of women's contemporary fiction. If you like scarred but resilient heroines, nostalgic interludes, and transformative epiphanies, then you'll love The Gen X Series.
Autorenporträt
Cary is a fifty something mum of three, an ex-dancer, actress, waitress, cleaner, TV presenter, double-glazing sales rep, fax machine operator (what's a fax machine?) You name it and she's cleaned it, served it, sent it or sold it. After years of globe-trotting and messing about, she settled down to a BA in Literature and Creative Writing, got a First Class and promptly moved to Sweden to start her own mid-life adventure. She swims in the Baltic sea year round, paddle-boards under midnight suns and has learned to sail. The author of six books and several short stories, Cary's work has been shortlisted in national and international competitions. She writes stories about ordinary people, living lives of extraordinary courage and indestructible humour. She promises only two things: no knights in shining armour and no flying cars. Her characters save themselves, as in the end we all must do. To learn more visit: https://www.caryjhansson.com
