Vanessa Benford: Return to Silkeborg, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

Over three decades ago, Abigail embarked on an intense affair with Mads, the father of the family she lived with in Denmark during her gap year in 1987. What will happen when she attends his funeral now?

Abigail has grown angry and bitter that this forty-one-year-old man started and ended their affair, especially now when she thinks about her teenage daughter. But did he start it? The more she considers their relationship - whatever it was - the more she questions her reasons for getting so close to Mads.

Return to Silkeborg weaves back and forth between the present day and the events that occurred during this gap year. Abigail must revisit her past and make peace with the twenty-three-year age difference and the clandestine nature of their relationship. She no longer views it with rose-coloured glasses. What unfolds is a journey of self-discovery and reflection as Abigail confronts the truth of their connection.

'Return to Silkeborg is a love story, a coming-of-age story, and a story about friendship wrapped into one terrific read.' -Heather Hummel Gallagher, award-winning novelist of Whispers from the Heart and Call it Kismet.

'The character development was amazing and the jump between past and present was so well done to explain the backstory of Abigail and Mads. This book brought up a lot of emotions for me.' - Goodreads reviewer
