NAME:
Read this text about the book “The Tree of the Angels”, written by Lucinda Riley:
Thirty years have passed since Greta left Marchmont Manor, a beautiful and stately home in rural Wales. At the invitation of her old friend David, she decides to return to the place to celebrate Christmas. However, due to a car accident, Greta has no more memories of the time she lived on the property, as well as much of her past.
During a walk through Marchmont's wintry landscape, she finds a grave in the woods, and the inscription on the snow-covered headstone becomes the spark that will help her regain her memory.
________________, remembering the past also means reliving painful and closely guarded secrets, like why Greta ran away from the manor, who she was before the accident and what happened to her daughter, Cheska, a young woman with angelic beauty… but who hides a side dingy.
