Liebe und Verderben

Romeo and Juliet in Alaska. When Lenora Allbright moves to Alaska with her parents in 1974, she is full of hope to leave behind the trauma of war that her father suffered in Vietnam. In Matthew, the son of the neighbors, Leni finds a close friend, and soon the two fall in love. But after the beauty of summer comes the darkness of winter, and the longer it lasts, the less able Leni's father is to control his inner demons. Soon, Leni and Matthew must fight for their love – until one day they try to break free. A heartbreaking novel full of tragedy and love – from the author of the worldwide bestseller "The Nightingale." Kristin Hannah takes her readers breathlessly through twelve years of family history. The energy contained in the book has rightly catapulted the novel onto the American bestseller list.
