MADAM BUROVA
Εκδότης Two Roads , ISBN 9781529373332
Madame Burova - Tarot Reader, Palmist and Clairvoyant is retiring and leaving
her booth on the Brighton seafront after fifty years.
Imelda Burova has spent a lifetime keeping other people's secrets and her silence has
come at a price. She has seen the lovers and the liars, the angels and the devils, the
dreamers and the fools. Her cards had unmasked them all and her cards never lied. But
Madame Burova is weary of other people's lives, their ghosts from the past and other
people's secrets, she needs rest and a little piece of life for herself. Before that, however,
she has to fulfill a promise made a long time ago. She holds two brown envelopes in her
hand, and she has to deliver them.
In London, it is time for another woman to make a fresh start. Billie has lost her university
job, her marriage, and her place in the world when she discovers something that leaves
her very identity in question. Determined to find answers, she must follow a trail which
might just lead right to Madame Burova's door.
In a story spanning over fifty years, Ruth Hogan conjures a magical world of 1970s
holiday camps and seaside entertainers, eccentrics, heroes and villains, the lost and the
found. Young people, with their lives before them, make choices which echo down the
years. And a wall of death rider is part of a love story which will last through time.
