U potrazi za Sylvie Lee

U potrazi za Sylvie Lee

Jean Kwok

Sylvie, the beautiful, brilliant and successful daughter of the Lee family, who was raised by relatives in the distant Netherlands, returns to the country of her childhood to visit her grandmother, who dies and then disappears.

Timid and shy Amy's older sister has always been a role model and her steadfast protector. But what happened to Sylvie? Terrified but determined, Amy flies to the place where Sylvie was last seen. And instead of simple answers, he discovers something much more precious: the truth. Fearless Sylvie has been keeping painful secrets that will reveal more about their family than she ever imagined.
