Klappentext zu „All The Things We Didn't Say “
Emotional, issue-led fiction perfect for all fans of The Memory Keeper's Daughter and Jodi Picoult Tragedy came as if so often does: a teenage party, emotions running high, followed by a horrific car crash. A girl is left dead and a boy is forced to leave his home town, with a secret that he will carry with him forever...
Years later, when Summer's mother disappears one summer, she is left with her father. Obsessed with an accident from years ago, he slowly descends into mental illness. And as he becomes more disorientated, he reveals small fragments of a secret that has been hidden since his youth, a secret that changes everything.
Summer supports her father as much as she can but eventually realises that she has to escape. She finds refuge with her great-aunt, Stella. Feisty, fun-loving, and dying of cancer, Stella holds parts of the family secret. Slowly, things fall into place for Summer - or at least so she thinks...
This is a story of the importance of family, of the damage a lie can do, and of how nothing is ever what it seems.

Rezension zu „All The Things We Didn't Say “
'Wonderfully complex and human and very, very difficult to put down' Catherine Ryan Hyde, author of Love in the Present Tense 'A touching story!Shepard's writing brings her sweet, troubled characters alive' Heat 'This beautifully written story is complex, emotional and totally absorbing' Closer 'This book will stay with you a long, long time' (Five stars) Company 'That rarest of accomplishments -- a novel that pulls you into its world, then just !keeps!getting!better. The big stuff is in here: New York in the nineties; the complications of family and friendships; hope and disappointment and redemption. On every page you'll find an architect's control, a painter's eye, a dancer's elegance, and, best of all, an unending well of generosity. It is what you want from fiction. Enjoy.' Charles Bock, author of Beautiful Children 'Complicated, rewarding and full of heart, Shepard creates a rich reading experience in shying from simple answers and happy endings' Publishers' Weekly '[A] boldly tender tale of personal discovery, redemption, and the complicated bonds of family' Booklist 'An emotionally raw narrative arc that does not shy away from difficult questions nor force happy endings!A captivating novel' Kirkus Reviews
