Book description
Memory Cougan, black and in her twenties, has a successful career and
an adoring fiance. But at her engagement party, she panics. Brought to
London aged five, she has no recollection of Africa, or why she left.
Leaving Adam behind, she returns to a place she no longer recognises -
and to Max, the coffee planter who may have the answers. But Memory's
journey of discovery is not hers alone to make. For Max, hardened by
years in the bush, her arrival will reawaken memories of the most
intense time in his life and of his beloved aeroplane, Hotel Juliet. For
Elise, her adoptive mother, Memory's flight threatens to reveal the
truth of what really happened in Africa all those years ago. Moving from
Britain to Africa over twenty years, Hotel Juliet combines pathos and
tragedy with the possibility of glorious redemption to tell the poignant
story of a passionate love triangle that resonates down to the present
day.
'A poignant love story that spans two decades and two continents'
