Told across five decades, in the voices of all four main characters, Bloodlines paints on canvases large and small, from the struggle against apartheid to the secrets and brutalities that tear apart a family. Equal parts geopolitical thrillerand one man's search for truth, it explores the damage inflicted by history, and the havoc wrought by lies. REVIEWBloodlines is not only a compelling, moving love story that features two remarkable, believable people, but their passionate quest for happiness isinextricably woven into South Africa's recent history as they fight against the injustices of apartheid. Neville Frankel's native land is as much a character in this novel as the people he has created. He takes his readers into a journeythat explores the vivid contrasts of a country both beautiful and brutal, and rewards us with a book that is a triumphant celebration of human dignity and the abiding power of love.-Lucie Prinz, former editor, The Atlantic Monthly
