Beschreibung

Can we ever escape our past?
When three women move to Portugal and are thrown together by happenstance, little do they know how dramatically their lives are about to change.
Fatima Khan is a Pakistani writer with a gift for languages, a German husband, a ten-year-old daughter, and a determination to escape her mother's clutches. Kate Miller is a driven, no-nonsense American diplomat who needs to get her way, even as her marriage flounders. Abena Nyator is a warm and kind-hearted Ghanaian entrepreneur consumed with self-doubt. Each of them looking for a fresh start. Each of them haunted by their past. Each of them burdened by horrendous secrets.
A visit by Fatima's mother threatens to derail her new life and forces her to face her demons. And when all-consuming guilt gets the better of Kate and Abena, each must make a momentous decision. Set against a sweeping international backdrop-Lisbon, Singapore, Karachi, Houston, Copenhagen, Berlin, Dubai, Brighton, and Accra-the three women are forced to confront an inconvenient truth: the guilty can't say goodbye.

Über den Autor

Mariam Navaid Ottimofiore is Pakistani by birth and Italian through marriage, but her identity is not confined to the passports she holds. She is an author, writer, speaker, researcher, and economist. She was born into expat life, joining her parents on their first global expatriate assignment in 1982 in the Kingdom of Bahrain. Her early childhood was spent growing up in Manama, New York City, and Karachi. To date, Mariam has lived in ten countries as both a Third Culture Kid (TCK) and an expat adult: Bahrain, the United States (NY, MA, TX), Pakistan, the United Kingdom, Germany, Denmark, Singapore, the United Arab Emirates, Ghana, and Portugal. A 40-foot container, an expat husband from another corner of the world, and three children born in three different countries 3,000 miles apart have added complexity, challenges, and many joys to living a multicultural, multilingual, and multi-mobile life. Passionate about languages and cultures, Mariam speaks fluent Urdu, English, Hindi, and German, with some Italian, Danish, Arabic, Twi, and Portuguese on the side. She is an expert at making embarrassing mistakes in every new language she picks up, is perpetually lost in every new city she calls home, and can never remember her new phone number or address, or where she packed those suede boots! The Guilty Can't Say Goodbye is her second book, but her debut novel. She currently lives in Cascais, Portugal with her German/Italian husband and her German-Pakistani-Italian kids, born in Singapore, Dubai, and Lisbon. You can follow her writing by visiting her author website, [...]
