This story begins with several mysteries. We are introduced to Clemence, a grandmother who is caring for her elderly mother in Marrakesh. Then she discovers that her mother has escaped from her room, but is brought back home by a man who Clemence has not seen in 50 years. Why is she so upset by his reappearance in her life?
She is waiting for her granddaughter to arrive by train. Why has she never met her before?
I’m intrigued to find out how these different strands will come together to make a story. I love this author’s work, so I’m confident that it will be unexpected. The cover shows acres of desert stretching out, promising a mysterious world inside.
