Having left her job and boyfriend, thirty year old Sandra decides to stay in a village
on the Costa Blanca in order to take stock
of her life and find a new direction. She
befriends Karin and Fredrik, an elderly
Norwegian couple, who provide her with
stimulating company and take the place
of the grandparents she never had. However,
when she meets Julián, a former
concentration-camp inmate who has just
returned to Europe from Argentina, she
discovers that all is not what it seems and
finds herself involved in a perilous quest
for the truth.
As well as being a powerful account of
self-discovery and an exploration of history
and redemption,
The Scent of Lemon
Leaves is a sophisticated and nail-biting
page-turner by one of Spain’s most accomplished
authors.
