Alle Exemplare der Ausgabe mit dieser ISBN anzeigen:One day Lindy Simpson cycles home from school and straight into a trap: someone is lying in wait for her, a wire strung between lampposts blocking the path. She is raped just yards from her front door. No one sees a thing and the perpetrator is not caught.
Her fourteen-year-old neighbour has loved Lindy from afar since they were kids. He becomes determined to solve the crime, investigating each suspect in the neighbourhood. But before the long, hot summer is out, it will become clear that the friendly community of Baton Rouge has much to hide. Behind the picket fences and rocking chairs on porches, behind the neighbourhood cookouts on sweltering afternoons, the vats of cold beer and cauldrons of spicy crawfish, lies a tangled web of darkness.
In his zeal to solve the crime, he stumbles across a sinister world he doesn't recognize, drawing ever closer to a terrifying denouement.

Buchbeschreibung Paperback. 1. The debut novel everyone is talking about. "The last page is as satisfying as the first." --Kathryn Stockett "I really loved this book. I can't praise it enough."--Anne Rice "It's a book to read and reread, one that will only get better with time."--Tom Franklin It was the summer everything changed. My Sunshine Away unfolds in a Baton Rouge neighborhood best known for cookouts on sweltering summer afternoons, cauldrons of spicy crawfish, and passionate football fandom. But in the summer of 1989, when fifteen-year-old Lindy Simpson--free spirit, track star, and belle of the block--experiences a horrible crime late one evening near her home, it becomes apparent that this idyllic stretch of Southern suburbia has a dark side, too. In My Sunshine Away, M.O. Walsh brilliantly juxtaposes the enchantment of a charmed childhood with the gripping story of a violent crime, unraveling families, and consuming adolescent love. Acutely wise and deeply honest, it is an astonishing and page-turning debut about the meaning of family, the power of memory, and our ability to forgive. Penguin, 2015. A trade paperback copy in near fine condition. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 3953838
