Bliv medlem af LibraryThing for at finde ud af, om du vil kunne lide denne bog. Der er ingen diskussionstråde på Snak om denne bog. This book is really hard to classify. It has tinges of horror as well as the supernatural and magical realism feel about it but doesn't really fit comfortably in any of those genres. What it is, is a beautiful building of tension in the relationships of a family and friends holidaying together in the Dordogne. Each of whom have their secrets that they either share with or want to protect from the others in the group. This group consists of James, a successful advertising executive, and his French wife, Sabine, and two daughters, Jessie and Beth, Matt, James' best friend and former employee, with wife Chrissie and rounding out the group is Rachel, another former employee of James and also one whom he had an affair with. One un-named member of this party is giving the already slightly disturbed Jessie instruction which seems to be making her personality even more strange than it already is. Storm clouds are gathering both in the meteorological sense and the emotional. When it strikes will it clear the air or is it a sign of great upheaval within the household? ingen anmeldelser | tilføj en anmeldelse
