Familiar Rooms in Darkness

Серия: "-"

The voices which are still talking at the end of someone's life don't tell the whole story. The ones that have fallen silent along the way, the people from forgotten parts of a person's past - they tell another kind of truth. Harry Day was a national literary treasure, revered for his poetry, novels and plays. But his personal life has remained something of a mystery. When Adam Downing, a young journalist, is appointed his official biographer, he finds that Harry's life holds an abundance of secrets. Adam is torn between wanting to protect Harry's reputation and his instincts as a journalist, which drive him to tell the truth at any cost. Even at the cost of losing the admiration and friendship of Harry's beautiful daughter Bella. For Harry's biggest secret involves Bella, the woman with whom Adam is falling in love.
