Goodreads Synopsis:
On the eve of their trip to South Africa, Lynne and her wife, Susan, await three guests in a Paris Nick, Lynne’s distant son; Laslo, Susan’s effusive friend; and Marc, a former professor living on borrowed glamour.
What begins as a bon voyage soon becomes a clash of old wounds and fresh resentments. As night falls, long-buried secrets surface, threatening to dismantle the facades each has built.
Through the winding corridors of Paris and the tangled landscapes of memory, five people must confront the truths they’ve spent decades avoiding. At the heart lies the tragic story of two brothers-one present, one absent-and the lingering trauma that continues to shape their lives.
Set over three days, this unflinching exploration of family, betrayal, and silence asks whether we can ever truly escape our past-and what it takes to finally face the truths we’ve spent a lifetime running from.
Review:
This is a gripping novel about loss and grief. Nick’s father dies suddenly, which brings back the memories of the abuse he suffered as a child. He realizes how much the adults around him knew and chose to ignore. I couldn’t put this book down. I think I could have easily read it in one sitting.
Three Days Grace is a powerful and heartbreaking story.
