¿Hacia dónde nos lleva la estela de lo que callamos?


Nochebuena de 1959, Altos de Adelaida, Australia.
Al final de un día caluroso, junto a un arroyo en los terrenos de la mansión de la familia Turner, un repartidor realiza un descubrimiento espeluznante. Comienza una investigación policial y el pequeño pueblo de Tambilla se ve inmerso en uno de los casos de asesinato más desconcertantes y dolorosos de la historia de Australia del Sur.

Sesenta años más tarde Jess ha perdido su empleo en el periódico y tiene dificultades para llegar a fin de mes. Inmersa en encontrar una buena historia que cambie su suerte, recibe una llamada inesperada por la que decide abandonar Londres y regresar a Sídney. Su abuela Nora, con quien se crio, ha sufrido una caída y está ingresada. El recuerdo de su querida abuela contrasta con la realidad al encontrar a una mujer frágil y desconcertada.

Sin nada que hacer en casa de Nora, Jess se dedica a curiosear y en el dormitorio de la anciana descubre un libro que detalla la investigación policial de una tragedia ya olvidada: la de la familia Turner en la Nochebuena de 1959. Mientras hojea el libro, Jess descubre una asombrosa conexión entre su familia y aquel suceso. Desde entonces la búsqueda de la verdad será el único camino posible.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

The highly anticipated new novel from the New York Times bestselling author of The Clockmaker's Daughter, a sweeping novel that begins with a shocking crime, the effects of which echo across continents and generations

Adelaide Hills, Christmas Eve, 1959: At the end of a scorching hot day, beside a creek in the grounds of the grand and mysterious house, a local delivery man makes a terrible discovery. A police investigation is called and the small town of Tambilla becomes embroiled in one of the most shocking and perplexing murder cases in the history of South Australia.

Many years later and thousands of miles away, Jess is a journalist in search of a story. Having lived and worked in London for almost twenty years, she now finds herself laid off from her full-time job and struggling to make ends meet. A phone call out of nowhere summons her back to Sydney, where her beloved grandmother, Nora, who raised Jess when her mother could not, has suffered a fall and been raced to the hospital.

At Nora's house, Jess discovers a book that chronicles the police investigation into a long-buried crime: the Turner Family Tragedy of Christmas Eve, 1959. It is only when Jess skims through the pages that she finds a shocking connection between her own family and this once-infamous event - a murder mystery that has never been resolved satisfactorily.

An epic novel that spans generations, Homecoming asks what we would do for those we love, and how we protect the lies we tell. It explores the power of motherhood, the corrosive effects of tightly held secrets, and the healing nature of truth. Above all, it is a beguiling and immensely satisfying novel from one of the finest writers working today.
