Publisher Description: Modern Spain meets its dark past when Natalia's friend Henry asks her to help him track down a missing document that will save his inheritance. Natalia has just been fired from the company she has worked at for many years. She takes it in her stride; she has suffered far worse in her life. She travels to the house of Henry's grandmother Valentina in a small Spanish coastal town. Her search unveils secrets and mysteries buried by the Spanish Civil War and following Second World War, and she becomes absorbed in the tragic story that she uncovers. Sebastian believes he has achieved true happiness in his life, but all is shattered by the death of his beloved wife. Distraught, angry, empty, he seeks to rediscover meaning to his existence in the same small town on the Spanish coast where he had spent idyllic childhood summers. Once there, he encounters new problems from an unexpected source. As events unwind, and their separate lives cross, both Natalia and Sebastian find their outlook on life changing and regain hopes for their futures. Lost Words, Lost Loves is a story of love and broken dreams, of hardship and loss, of lives forced apart but the memory of them rescued from oblivion to endure forever in the memory of their descendants. |
