The Blue Bath
Mary Waters-Sayer
American
Kat Lind, has just returned to London following the death or her
mother. At a gallery opening with her friend Jorie she is surprised
to find not only paintings of herself on display but the artist
Daniel Blake who painted them. Kat and Daniel had a past when she was
a student in Paris. Although, she has not seen Daniel for twenty
years his appearance may change her life and that of her husband and
son if she allows it.
Throughout
the story Kat has to struggle with the notion that she might want to
regain something she lost in the past but on the other hand she might
need to stay put with a future she is comfortable with, not only for
herself but for her son as well. But as in life, nothing is certain
and in the end she may not have the luxury of choice.
This
is a beautifully written book and I just loved the story. It's full
of great locations, wonderful descriptive detail and I love the way
the author captures the characters. I felt like I had meet all of
these people somewhere before. The story was presented in such a lush
and vivid manner that it would no doubt translate well into a film. I
can't wait to read more by this author.
Thanks
to Goodreads giveaway and St. Martin's Press for allowing me to read
the advanced reader's copy.
