Résultats pour "Julia Roberts" dans Femmes détectives

Das Herzstück einer Mädchenschule ist abgebrannt: die Bibliothek! Einflussreiche Herren sehen hier ihre Chance, die Schule gleich ganz zu schließen. Eliza und Millie wollen dies natürlich verhindern! Getarnt mischen sie sich in den High-School-Alltag und verteidigen gleich eine gemobbte Schülerin. Doch zwischen Cricket, Unterricht und Teepausen finden Millie und Eliza finstere Geheimnisse: Erpressung, falsche Identitäten und ein fast perfektes Verbrechen.

In the summer of 1992, a year after riots exploded between black and Jewish neighbors in Crown Heights, a black family is brutally murdered in their Brooklyn home. A teenager is quickly convicted, and the justice system moves on. Twenty-two years later, journalist Rebekah Roberts gets a letter: "I didn't do it."

Aviva Kagan was a just a teenager when she left her Hasidic Jewish life in Brooklyn for a fling with a smiling college boy from Florida-and then disappeared. Twenty-three years later, the child she walked away from is a NYC tabloid reporter named Rebekah Roberts. And Rebekah isn't sure she wants her mother back in her life.

Just months after Rebekah Roberts was born, her mother, an Hasidic Jew from Brooklyn, abandoned her Christian boyfriend and newborn baby to return to her religion. Neither Rebekah nor her father have heard from her since. Now a recent college graduate, Rebekah has moved to New York City to follow her dream of becoming a big-city reporter. But she's also drawn to the idea of being closer to her mother, who might still be living in the Hasidic community in Brooklyn. Then Rebekah is called to cover the story of a murdered Hasidic woman.
