Beskrivelse
Haunted by the memory of catastrophe, and driven to become a rock star, Yayoi made two bad decisions. She married Nori, the violent scion of a wealthy family, and she entered into a crushing recording contract with their major label. Faced with a film career on the decline, Nori becomes an obsessive control-freak at home. After a nasty confrontation with her husband, Yayoi flees their penthouse, fearing she is losing her mind.When asked to do a promotional film shoot abroad she sees it as a ticket to freedom. In New Zealand she meets Bill, a young executive made redundant and about to set out on his own odyssey. When they find themselves on the run they quickly form a bond that develops into a heated and desperate romance. But Nori has no intention of letting his wife go. With powerful connections he turns to dangerous contacts, because nothing will stop him getting her back. Not even murder.
The Girl With Two Names is set in urban Japan and the raw backwoods of New Zealand.
NB: the book, as stated above, is a psychological thriller. You are being purposefully placed in the head of a heroine with strong personality flaws that do have severe outcomes for those who allow her into their lives. This is an important aspect of the story.
