The Wednesday Club, Paperback / softback Book

The Wednesday Club Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

1938. Hitler's expansionist policies are arousing both anger and admiration, not least in Helsinki's Wednesday Club.

The members of this relaxed gentleman's club are old friends of lawyer Claes Thune.

But this year it is apparent that the political unrest in Europe is having an effect on the cohesion of the group. Thune has recently divorced and is at something of a loss, running his law practice with no great enthusiasm.

Luckily he has the assistance of an efficient new secretary, Matilda Wiik.

But behind her polished exterior Mrs Wiik is tormented by memories of the Finnish Civil War, when she experienced horrors she has been trying to forget ever since. And one evening, with the Wednesday Club gathered in Thune's office, she hears a voice she hoped she would never hear again. She is suddenly plunged back into the past. But this time she is no longer a helpless victim . . .
