Description

A Half Forgotten Song by Katherine Webb is an absorbing and intoxicating mystery around a love that takes hold and won't let go. Set against the backdrop of two time periods, this novel explores the dark heart of obsessive love through the intertwined stories of Mitzy Hatcher and a young man who becomes obsessed with a portrait. Mitzy's life is forever changed when renowned artist Charles Aubrey arrives in her village, bringing his exotic mistress and their daughters. Over the next three summers, Mitzy glimpses a future she had never imagined, and a powerful love is kindled in her. Years later, the same young man becomes fixated on a hastily drawn portrait, leading him to uncover the truth about those fevered summers. Katherine Webb's writing is rich, vivid and evocative, bringing to life the complexities of human emotion and the enduring power of love.
