Hôtel Saga
Clara Lemaire Anspach
Alma, in her early thirties, loves her job, partying and one-night stands. She is not one for commitment, no place for a man in her bed or in her life! And with good reason: she still sleeps with the urn of her mother, who died a few years ago. When her grandmother has a bad fall, she immediately leaves for Iceland to look after her.
There, in the land of her origins, where she hasn’t set foot since her mother died, Alma has to come to terms with grief, love and the unexpected.
