SOLO FEMALE TRAVELER: The Straightest Path Into Night by Jasper Lowe
is an edge-of-your-seat, historical thriller set in 1973 South America that blends fact and fiction.
Our narrator: eighteen-year-old English solo traveler, Fran, is embarking on a gap year, just as her parents are filing for divorce. She takes a job working for sixty-something, Jewish-German émigré couple, Agatha and Dieter Voss, who run a quaint Argentine ski hostel, Beethoven House, located in picturesque Patagonia.
Little does Fran know that Agatha and Dieter are harbouring a diabolical secret. With Juan Perón returned from political exile and about to take up the presidency once more, Fran becomes an unwitting pawn in their game.
What follows is a fast-paced, gap year thrill ride, played out across Argentina and Brazil, and against the backdrop of the politics and history of the era.
If you like:
