herbarium. Gideon's flowers

Winning novel of the II Titania Award. A dark family secret made Sarah leave Oxford at the age of eighteen. In her flight to Brazil, she left a life behind. But five years later, after her father's death, she is forced to return. She wants to see her grandmother Sylvia, the woman who raised her as a child and who now suffers from Alzheimer's. Sarah believes she will only be there for a few days, but when she goes to the University where her father was a chemistry professor, she discovers that he has spent the last few years studying Jane Eyre and looking for drawings of mysterious flowers, Gideon's flowers. Who is Gideon? What do these illustrations mean? What does Jane Eyre have to do with all this? Although her grandmother seems to know the answers, she cannot help her. The most paradoxical thing is that the only one who can help her is Liam Soto, star professor at Oxford University, the greatest expert on Jane Eyre in England, and he neither wants nor can be near Sarah. Through Gideon's flowers, Sarah will discover her grandmother's past and a great love story that may help her regain her life and give her the strength to unearth what is truly hidden in her heart.
