Autor Emma Healeyen Limba Engleză Paperback – 9 ian 2019
But why does fifteen-year-old Lana still feel lost?
When Lana goes missing for four desperate days and returns refusing to speak of what happened, Jen fears the very worst. She thinks she's failed as a mother, that her daughter is beyond reach and that she must do something - anything - to bring her back.
The family returns to London where everyone but Jen seems happy to carry on as normal. Jen's husband Hugh thinks she's going crazy - and their eldest daughter Meg is tired of Lana getting all the attention. But Jen knows Lana has changed, and can't understand why.
Does the answer lie in those four missing days?
And how can Jen find out?

Recenzii
As
gripping
as
its
predecessor
A compelling modern family drama with witty and wonderful characters. Utter bliss.
Gripping, deeply affecting
A beautiful exploration of mental health and love
Utterly compelling and insightful, I was drawn into this family in crisis from the first chapter of this unflinchingly honest and beautifully written novel
I adored the forensic detail of Healey's writing and the wry, sharp take on millenial family life
A fast-paced, gripping read
Oozing with tension and written with captivating brilliance
At once an absorbing thriller and a beautifully observed study of the relationship between mother and teenage daughter
I don't know anyone else who writes like this. Emma Healey's voice soars, sings and startles as she takes you right under the skin of her characters. She 'magics' the ordinary into the extraordinary and, just as impressively, transposes the extraordinary to the ordinary. Unforgettable.
This novel is a beautiful and rare thing - a page turning thriller with all the pain, warmth and humour of authentic family life portrayed. I absolutely loved it.
Healey is a natural story-teller
