Les flors perdudes de l'Alice Hart

Ringland, Holly

Nine-year-old Alice Hart wakes up in the hospital after a fire has ripped through her home, taken her parents and left her speechless. Her only relative is her paternal grandmother, June, who runs a flower farm where she fosters women in difficult circumstances. In the calm and luminous atmosphere of the farm, the girl gradually recovers her voice and self-confidence as she grows older and learns the language of native flowers and the feelings they express, a happy time whose placidity is will be cut short after betrayal and irreparable loss. Thus, at twenty-six years old, Alice decides to escape without a trace and take refuge in a corner of the central desert; However, in this spectacular landscape that makes her seem from another world, and without the protection of flowers, she will feel vulnerable, at the mercy of the love of a charismatic man and a past that does not stop haunting her.
