520 | _aMarian Lescher's steady if predictable life in her native Chicago is upended when she is unexpectedly swept into a love affair with irishman Daniel Lynch, a star medic who is renowned for his charismatic personality. Soon she has divorced her husband and, in the throes of newfound passion, finds herself quickly re-married to this extraordinary man, and contemplating a move to his birth place in rural Ireland, where he plans to take over his father's GP practice. With her journalistic career finally on the rise, it's a lot to leave behind - but her new husband has unlocked something in Marian and she feels high on life as never before, even when a darker side to his nature begins to reveal itself. Nothing can prepare her for what is to follow, though, as devastating circumstances lead her on a trail to Daniel's home in Ireland, and in turn back to America, as she tries to come to terms with the enigmatic nature of the man for whom she threw it all away - only to discover that nothing was what it seemed. The Husband is a gripping human story of love in its many guises, of losing everything and ultimately - in the small Midlands village of Glanmilish - of rediscovering the meaning of family. | ||
