Mrs. Sinclair's Suitcase
Author: Louise Walters
Publisher: Penguin
ISBN: 0698155971
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 290
Book Description
A heartbreaking and deeply compelling debut, Mrs. Sinclair’s Suitcase is a compulsive page-turner about thwarted love, dashed hopes, and family secrets—book-club fiction at its best. Roberta, a lonely thirty-four-year-old bibliophile, works at The Old and New Bookshop in England. When she finds a letter inside her centenarian grandmother’s battered old suitcase that hints at a dark secret, her understanding of her family’s history is completely upturned. Running alongside Roberta’s narrative is that of her grandmother, Dorothy, as a forty-year-old childless woman desperate for motherhood during the early years of World War II. After a chance encounter with a Polish war pilot, Dorothy believes she’s finally found happiness, but must instead make an unthinkable decision whose consequences forever change the framework of her family. The parallel stories of Roberta and Dorothy unravel over the course of eighty years as they both make their own ways through secrets, lies, sacrifices, and love. Utterly absorbing, Mrs. Sinclair’s Suitcase is a spellbinding tale of two worlds, one shattered by secrets and the other by the truth.

Pages : 26
Book Description
Do you take for granted the suitcase you carefully pack and take with you on a trip? Mentally, line in a row all the suitcases you have ever owned and carried with you. As a group, they look like empty tattered boxes. Individually, if you look closely and take the time to reflect, each one holds more than clothes and books. Each one holds memories, whether happy or sad, good or bad. Each one has personally accompanied you, and perhaps it was the only thing you held on to tightly. If it were lost or misplaced, do you remember how anxious you were, like losing a friend? Then when it was recovered, you were relieved and smiling, and all was right with the world again. These are the stories about several of these faithful companions.

Frank doesn’t want Jenna’s help any more than Jenna wants to help him, but the two will have to put aside their animosity for each other if they want to reel in the killer. This bookselling sleuth knows she will have to cast a wide net in order to catch the killer, even if means dangerously luring them in. Will her novel idea help her catch the killer, or is she bound for a more deadly ending?
