Nele's Summer ebook

For fourteen days the key lay in the glove compartment before Nele set off. It had come from the notary's office in Bergen, together with two pages on which the word estate appeared three times and the name Frauke Steenbeck once. At the end of a sandy track, behind a strip of pines, stands the house: brick, a new roof, an extension with a glass front facing the Kleiner Jasmunder Bodden. Someone thought about it for a long time. Nele has a list for everything. Turn on the water, the fuse box, shopping for Friday — because on Friday the other three arrive. Britta, Marisa and Ann-Kathrin, three women who for years have written to each other only on birthdays, and who have now inherited this house together. A summer with a beginning, a purpose and an end. Something that can be organised. What is on no list is the reason why Nele really needs this summer. She is carrying something she has told no one, something she has never even said out loud to herself, and the house on the Bodden is a bad place to go on avoiding it. The opening of the series "Reunion on Rügen" — a warm, precise novel about friendships one had thought lost, about an inheritance that is more than a house, and about the courage to finally tell the truth.
