'Aims to open the eyes and tug the heartstrings' Independent An
atmospheric, vibrant and moving tale of pain and passion at the
heart of war-torn Spain from Victoria Hislop, the million-copy
bestselling author of The Island. Beneath the majestic towers of
the Alhambra, Granada's cobbled streets resonate with music and
secrets. Sonia Cameron knows nothing of the city's shocking past;
she is here to dance. But in a quiet cafe, a chance conversation
and an intriguing collection of old photographs draw her into the
extraordinary tale of Spain's devastating civil war. Seventy years
earlier, the cafe is home to the close-knit Ramirez family. In
1936, an army coup led by Franco shatters the country's fragile
peace, and in the heart of Granada the family witnesses the worst
atrocities of conflict. Divided by politics and tragedy, everyone
must take a side, fighting a personal battle as Spain rips itself
apart. Praise for The Return. . . 'Hislop deserves a medal for
opening a breach into the holiday beach bag' Independent
'Captivating and deeply moving' Look 'Hislop marries an epic family
saga with meticulous historical research, and it's a captivating
partnership' Easy Living 'Executed with verve and sensitivity'
