Nel bel mezzo dell'oceano Pacifico, una piccola isola offre un paradiso di mare cristallino e sabbia bianca. Qui, Kat ha trovato una felicita costruita con pazienza, pronta a condividerla con le amiche di una vita. Invia a ognuna di loro una lettera, sfidandole a rischiare e a ricominciare insieme all'ombra delle palme fijane. Nessuna riesce a resistere a una proposta cosi allettante: Sina, madre single con un figlio arrogante; Maya, che vede la vita scivolare via; Ingrid, abituata alla solitudine; e Lisbeth, prigioniera delle apparenze. Con intraprendenza ed entusiasmo, le quattro amiche si trasferiscono sull'isola e, sotto la guida di Kat, avviano una piccola fabbrica di cioccolato. Qui, imparano a racchiudere in cremosi bocconi il loro amore per la vita, riscoprendo una nuova leggerezza e il dolce sapore della liberta. Tuttavia, anche in questo paradiso, il passato non puo essere ignorato. Ognuna di loro dovra confrontarsi con i segreti che porta dentro, minacciando il legame e tutto cio che hanno costruito insieme.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - With insight and brutal honesty, this book paints a vivid picture of some of the world's most vulnerable women and children. Called 'women of love,' very young girls make up a workforce tasked with feeding their families by offering their bodies up for sale. It is a tradition practiced for centuries by the poorest families who live by sending their daughters, sisters, and wives into sex trafficking. Baby girls are welcome arrivals in these towns of love--everyone knows that one day they will be the breadwinners, despite being untouchable and despised by Indian society. Tamanna dares to break free of this legacy of prostitution, even though it also means being shunned by her entire family. As a 19-year-old she runs away, an action which costs her dearly: she is forced to leave her five-year-old daughter Rupa behind with Jabbar, in the house with the big gleaming knife. Eight years later, Tamanna knows that time is running out for Rupa, and she demands help, both from the police and from the underfunded aid organization Pukaar, forcing them to consider whether they can look a mother in the face and argue that saving her daughter isn't worth risking everything. …
