About this ebook
Having left her job and boyfriend, thirty-year-old Sandra decides to stay in a village on the Costa Blanca in order to take stock of her life and find a new direction. She befriends Karin and Fredrik, an elderly Norwegian couple, who provide her with stimulating company and take the place of the grandparents she never had. However, when she meets Julian, a former concentration-camp inmate who has just returned to Europe from Argentina, she discovers that all is not what it seems and finds herself involved in a perilous quest for the truth. As well as being a powerful account of self-discovery and an exploration of history and redemption, /The Scent of Lemon Leaves/ is a sophisticated and nail-biting page-turner by one of Spain's most accomplished authors.
