我不想背叛母親的祕密,這卻是我能為她做的最後一件事。  《莎拉的鑰匙》作者最新力作!
  領先《暮光之城》,與《達文西密碼》、《龍紋身的女孩》作者,並列2010年歐洲三大暢銷作家!
  ★出版至今,在法國,暢銷已突破三十萬冊。★版權售出二十國,全球盛大發行中。
  原本看似單純的懷舊之旅,卻意外抖出了塵封多年的祕密……
  安東尼為了妹妹梅拉妮40歲的生日,準備了一個驚喜──就是帶她回到諾穆提。那是他們童年時期與家族成員避暑之地,也是留有他們最美好記憶的地方。但是,在母親死後,再也沒有任何人重返諾穆提,也沒人再提起母親的死亡。這趟旅程目的看似單純的懷舊,卻也像是刻意的安排,最讓人意想不到的是,在回程中,他們兩人竟然發生車禍,就在梅拉妮準備對安東尼提到一件關於母親的事……
  然而,當真相大白時,有誰敢正面迎視?
  母親在36歲就突然離開,這其中到底還有什麼不為人知的祕密?安東尼只知道母親來自法國南部農家,年紀輕輕便嫁入巴黎豪門望族,在門戶不登對的婚姻生活中始終隱忍,而當他逐一拼貼還原母親的最後時光之後,卻越來越覺得母親的死因並不單純,甚至與父親及祖母有很大的關係。
  此時的安東尼,正面臨因妻子外遇離婚、與青少年兒女溝通疏離的低潮期,他想從眼前的生活掙脫,更想擺脫名門家族背景的束縛──找出母親死因的真相,是他唯一能扭轉自己命運的機會!然而,當真相揭露時,真能如他所願給予存活的人慰藉?而在祕密揭露之時,又有誰能躲過它所造成的更大傷害?
  Antoine Rey thought he had the perfect surprise for his sister Melanie’s birthday: a weekend by the sea at Noirmoutier Island , where the pair spent many happy childhood summers playing on the beach.  It had been too long, Antoine thought, since they’d returned to the island—over thirty years, since their mother died and the family holidays ceased.  But the island’s haunting beauty triggers more than happy memories; it reminds Melanie of something unexpected and deeply disturbing about their last island summer.  When, on the drive home to Paris, she finally summons the courage to reveal what she knows to Antoine, her emotions overcome her and she loses control of the car.
  Trapped in the wake of a family secret shrouded by taboo, Antoine must confront his past and also his troubled relationships with his own children.  How well does he really know his mother, his children, even himself?  Suddenly fragile on all fronts – as a son, a husband, a brother and a father – Antoine Rey will soon learn the shocking truth about his family and himself.
  By turns thrilling and seductive, with a lingering effect that is bittersweet and redeeming, A Secret Kept is the story of a modern family and the invisible ties that hold it together.
  本書中譯版《母親的守密者》由寶瓶文化出版。
作者簡介
塔提娜.德羅尼 (Tatiana de Rosnay)
  塔提娜.德羅尼1961年出生於巴黎,擁有法國、英國、俄羅斯的血統。七○年代,她跟隨前往麻省理工學院任教的父親,移居美國波士頓。大學畢業後,她在1984年重返巴黎,從事《浮華新世界》雜誌的編輯工作。
  1992年出版第一部小說後,塔提娜.德羅尼在法國共出版十本作品。《莎拉的鑰匙》從2007年在英語書市出版至今,不僅攻佔各國暢銷書榜,全球銷量突破五百萬冊:光是美國地區,銷量已高達一百多萬冊;而在歐洲,其聲勢更勝過《刺蝟的優雅》及《暮光之城》系列,甚至讓塔提娜超越眾多法國名家,成了2010年全歐洲銷量稱冠的女作家。《母親的守密者》是她繼《莎拉的鑰匙》之後,再度以母語英文所創作的小說。
  塔提娜.德羅尼的成功絕非偶然。她的小說語言親近讀者,情節的掌控力和渲染力極強,擅長以細膩的筆法,帶領讀者走入角色的內心世界。除了懸疑的情節安排之外,她也能兼顧情感方面的表現,張力十足;她屢屢探討「家族過往」此一龐大母題,也為其作品增添了豐富的閱讀樂趣。2008年,她以《莎拉的鑰匙》榮獲法國「科西嘉讀者獎」和「書商首選書獎」,成為法國廣大讀者最期盼閱讀的作家。不僅如此,2010年,她更與《達文西密碼》作者丹.布朗、《龍紋身的女孩》作者史迪格.拉森並列歐洲三大暢銷小說家,其受歡迎度可見一斑。
  TATIANA DE ROSNAY is the author of ten novels, including the New York Times bestselling novel Sarah’s Key, an international sensation with over 4 million copies sold in thirty-eight countries worldwide that has now been made into a major motion picture. A Secret Kept debuted on the New York Times bestseller list and has sold over 550,000 copies in twenty countries. Together with Dan Brown and Stieg Larsson, Tatiana was named one of the top three fiction writers in Europe in 2010. She lives with her husband and two children in Paris, where she is at work on her next novel. Visit her online at www.tatianaderosnay.com.
