Regresa a la unida y resiliente comunidad de Beartown con este apasionante libro (Woman's World) sobre primeros amores, segundas oportunidades y últimos adioses. Del autor de Gente ansiosa y Un hombre llamado Ove, bestsellers del New York Times.
En el transcurso de dos semanas, todo cambiará en Beartown.
Han pasado dos años desde aquellos sucesos que nadie quiere recordar. Todos han intentado seguir adelante, pero hay algo en este lugar que lo impide. La destrucción causada por una feroz tormenta de finales de verano reaviva la vieja rivalidad entre Beartown y el pueblo vecino de Hed, una rivalidad que siempre se ha librado a través de sus equipos de hockey sobre hielo.
Maya Andersson y Benji Ovich, dos jóvenes que se marcharon de Beartown en busca de una vida mejor, vuelven a casa y se reencuentran con sus mejores amigos de la infancia. En el pueblo se respira una nueva sensación de optimismo y determinación, encarnada en la nueva e impresionante pista de hielo que se ha construido junto al lago.
Los padres de Maya, por su parte, se ven envueltos en una investigación sobre las turbias finanzas del club de hockey; y Amat --quien fuera la estrella del equipo de Beartown-- ha perdido el rumbo tras una lesión y un intento fallido de entrar en la NHL. Las tensiones latentes entre los dos pueblos se convierten en intimidación y violencia. Mientras tanto, un chico de catorce años se aleja cada vez más de esta comunidad obsesionada con el hockey y está decidido a vengarse de las personas a las que considera responsables de la muerte de su querida hermana. Tiene un arma y un plan que dejará a Beartwon con una pérdida que es casi más de lo que puede soportar.
-----
Return to the close-knit, resilient community of Beartown with this engrossing page-turner (Woman's World) about first loves, second chances, and last goodbyes--from the #1 New York Times bestselling author of Anxious People and A Man Called Ove.
Over the course of two weeks, everything in Beartown will change.
Two years have passed since the events that no one wants to think about. Everyone has tried to move on, but there's something about this place that prevents it. The destruction caused by a ferocious late-summer storm reignites the old rivalry between Beartown and the neighboring town of Hed, a rivalry which has always been fought through their ice hockey teams.
Maya Andersson and Benji Ovich, two young people who left in search of a better life, come home and joyfully reunite with their closest childhood friends. There is a new sense of optimism and purpose in the town, embodied in the impressive new ice rink that has been built down by the lake.
Maya's parents, meanwhile, are caught up in an investigation of the hockey club's murky finances, and Amat--once the star of the Beartown team--has lost his way after an injury and a failed attempt to get drafted into the NHL. Simmering tensions between the two towns turn into acts of intimidation and then violence. All the while, a fourteen-year-old boy grows increasingly alienated from this hockey-obsessed community and is determined to take revenge on the people he holds responsible for his beloved sister's death.
