Tampoco volvieron a ver a su hija. Nombre en clave del caso: Seis Cuatro.Más de una decada despues, el jefe de prensa de la policía se ve obligado a volver sobre el suceso, cuyo estigma no se ha diluido en el tiempo: el fracaso de la investigación sigue siendo motivo de escándalo. Pero el veterano Mikami no aspira ya a resolver el crimen, solo pretende tender una mano a la familia de la víctima y contribuir de algún modo a limpiar la reputación del cuerpo. Sin embargo, tras detectar una irregularidad en el expediente, Mikami acabará desvelando el móvil de un delito que encierra secretos inimaginables.

Povučena Daphne Amos oduvijek je vjerovala da je u svom zaručniku Heathu pronašla srodnu dušu. Oboje su čuvali svoje tajne od drugih, ali i između sebe, sve dok Heathove učestale noćne more nisu počele unositi napetost u njihovu vezu. Odlučan da njihovom predstojećem braku pruži najbolju moguću šansu za uspjeh, Heath insistira da mu se Daphne pridruži na sedmodnevnom tretmanu u savjetovalištu za parove s doktorom Matthewom Cernyjem, psihologom poznatom po uspješnom pronicanju u korijene potisnutih sjećanja. Daphne nevoljko pristaje – iako je prošlost posljednje mjesto na koje želi poći. Zabačena i odbojna lokacija samo joj pojačava nelagodu, kao i doktorova pravila: moraju se odreći ključeva automobila i mobitela te biti pod nadzorom skrivenih kamera. K tome, ne smiju se družiti s ostalim pacijentima. Jedne besane noći, Daphne odlučuje napustiti sobu… I tek tada shvaća da institut nije ni blizu onome što je isprva mislila – te da se vrisci Heathove prošlosti ne bi smjeli čuti. Trebali bi ostati tajna.
A rapturous novel of star-crossed love in a time of war—from the international bestselling author of The Secret of Clouds. During the last moments of calm in prewar Prague, Lenka, a young art student, and Josef, who is studying medicine, fall in love. With the promise of a better future, they marry—only to have their dreams shattered by the imminent Nazi invasion. Like so many others, they are torn apart by the currents of war. Now a successful obstetrician in America, Josef has never forgotten the wife he believes died in the war. But in the Nazi ghetto of Terezín, Lenka survived, relying on her skills as an artist and the memories of a husband she would never see again. Then, decades later and thousands of miles away, an unexpected encounter in New York leads to an inescapable glance of recognition, and the realization that providence has given Lenka and Josef one more chance. From the glamorous ease of life in Prague before the occupation to the horrors of Nazi Europe, The Lost Wife explores the power of first love, the resilience of the human spirit, and our capacity to remember.
