When the truth is the worst lie of all ...Traumatised after
overhearing the shocking truth about her family, nine year-old
Violet Grey realises that her entire life has been based on lies.
Meanwhile, her mother, Doris, slides towards social isolation as
the consequences of bygone secrets begin to manifest themselves in
her rebellious daughter's behaviour. When war is declared in 1939,
no one can predict the devastating events that will follow. Melody
of Raindrops is the story of a mother and daughter, driven apart by
the family's patriarch, Tom Jeffson, as he struggles to overcome
his recently diagnosed psychopathic disorder. A harrowing tale of
misplaced family loyalty, envy and manipulation, will Tom conquer
the demons that haunt him, win back the trust of those he has
wronged in the past and keep his promises to his wife and
daughters? Although the novel is the second book in the Jeffson
Family Trilogy, it can be enjoyed as a stand-alone family saga,
covering the period 1932 to 1945.
