Manželé a milenci - Láska je silnější než osud – Williams Beatriz (2026)

New England, 2022. Three years earlier, single mother and artist Mallory Dunne experienced every parent’s worst nightmare when her son Sam was poisoned by a death cap mushroom at summer camp. He survives, but urgently needs a new kidney to lead a normal life. While searching among relatives for a suitable donor, Mallory makes an unexpected discovery: her mother was adopted from an Irish orphanage in 1952. This is not the only secret to emerge, however. There is also Mallory’s long-ago summer romance with Monk Adams, her childhood best friend, which ended in an unexpected betrayal. Cairo, 1951. Hannah Ainsworth, a woman with a mysterious past, builds a new life as the wife of a British diplomat after losing so much during the war. Amid the British elite of colonial Cairo, she meets a charismatic hotel deputy manager who saves her after a cobra attack. Their passionate relationship awakens her desire for life and for everything she has lost. As the streets of Cairo seethe and Egypt’s political turmoil escalates into violent unrest that could sweep everything away, Hannah is expecting an illegitimate child and finds herself caught between two men on opposite sides. Masterfully linking two timelines, this compelling story shows how personal decisions can affect several generations. Beatriz Williams creates an unforgettable tale of deeply drawn characters facing morally and humanly complex situations while refusing to give up on life.
