Laurie, the daughter of Jacques Berthier and Francine Blanchard, his first wife, disappeared 30 years ago. Today, Jacques’ perseverance in finding his daughter is still noticed, while Francine is experiencing things differently. Could she have something to hide? For Claire Hamelin, Jacques’ second wife, the disappearance was just as trying. A renowned radiation oncologist who is emotionally involved with her cancer patients, Claire is finally ready to open her heart to a new lover. She also carries a moving secret that will soon come to light.
Mémoires vives is the story of families haunted in spite of themselves by a past that is still alive.
