Darkness Falls in Jakarta by Louise Soraya Black
The death of Claire s parents triggers troubled memories of her past life in Jakarta, a time that Claire has been running away from her whole life. Haunted by guilt and the terrible misunderstandings and accusations that forced her to leave the city as a teenager, she decides to travel back in the hope of finding answers and perhaps forgiveness. Is confronting her past the key to her deliverance?
'Very attractive and beautifully written'Fay Weldon. ‘Subtle drama and menace, sensuality and enchantment’ Patricia Wastved. ‘A remarkably evocative atmosphere… makes for a deeply seductive read’ Ella Berthoud
