      Jak moc vlastně známe ty, které milujeme? Třicátnice Emma Hawkeová se vzpamatovává z nevyřešené vraždy svého prvního manžela Derricka, poté co si vybudovala nový život po boku Toma, hezkého, úspěšného a milujícího vdovce, se kterým se konečně zase cítí v bezpečí. Jednoho krásného dne se ovšem do jejich domu na connecticutském pobřeží dostaví policie a klade otázky ohledně Derrickovy smrti. Emma si už byla jistá, že ve dnech po tragédii byla zbavena podezření. Proč se tedy policie znovu pouští do vyšetřování – a zajímá ji, kdy vznikl její vztah s Tomem? Vždyť se s ním seznámila až po Derrickově smrti. Emmu šokuje zjištění, že se ve skutečnosti ona a její druhý manžel zúčastnili dva měsíce před Derrickovou vraždou stejné pracovní večeře. Všiml si jí tam snad Tom, aniž o tom věděla? Nemohl se na ni zaměřit a zosnovat plán, aby se stala jeho manželkou za každou cenu? Tento román, plný zvratů a nečekaných obratů až do poslední stránky, nás přivádí ke známé prastaré otázce: Jak moc vlastně známe ty, které milujeme?

      "This monograph brings together the presentations from the nineteenth John Bowlby Memorial Conference in 2012, organised by The Bowlby Centre. The aim of this was to explore the growing role of the body in relational psychotherapy over the last decade, and to bring us up to date in thinking about the relationship between attachment, the body and trauma. Questions addressed included: How do we anchor the new understandings we are gaining within the framework of attachment? How might the integration of these ideas about the body change what we do in the consulting room? What impact might this have on the therapy relationship? Can we maintain and respect the place of a secure, attuned attachment between therapist and client, and its healing potential, at the centre of our therapeutic work?"--Publisher's website
