Summary

Combining the atmosphere of Jess Walter's "Beautiful Ruins" with the intriguing historical backstory of Christina Baker Kline's "The Orphan Train," Deborah Lawrenson's mesmerizing novel transports readers to a sunny Portuguese town with a shadowy past. Travelling to Faro, Portugal, journalist Joanna Millard hopes to escape an unsatisfying relationship and a stalled career. But Joanna soon realizes Faro has a seedy underbelly. Meanwhile, Nathan Emberlin is determined to discover the truth involving a child's kidnapping that may have taken place on this dramatic coastline over two decades ago. Joanna's subsequent search leads her to an English expat who cryptically insists she will find answers in The Alliance, a novel written by American Esta Hartford. As Joanna reads deeper into The Alliance, she begins to suspect that Hartford's story and Nathan's may indeed converge in Faro - where the past not only casts a long shadow but still exerts a very present danger
