A Weekend With Emma

De: Dawn Kohler

Narrado por: Virtual Voice

After losing her job as a reporter, Kate Edwards receives an unexpected invitation from the one woman she’s always longed to interview - Emma Daines, the reclusive former U.S. ambassador to Germany, who was instrumental in bringing down the Berlin Wall. Emma’s legacy is legendary, but so is her mistrust of journalists. For decades, she has fiercely guarded a deeply personal secret involving her five-year-old daughter, Sarah—one the press has long tried to uncover.

Set against the quiet beauty of a Northern California beach town, The Invitation is a poignant and emotionally rich novel about ambition, trust, and the universal longing to be truly understood. As Kate walks the tightrope between professional ambition and personal vulnerability, she uncovers Emma’s hidden memoir—an intimate account of family sacrifice, emotional wounds, and the quiet courage that shaped a remarkable life. But as Kate delves deeper into Emma’s story, she
uncovers a truth far closer to home than she ever imagined.

At its heart, The Invitation is a story of healing and human connection. With lyrical prose and unforgettable characters, it reminds us that the strongest walls are often the ones within—and that sometimes, the bravest thing we can do is say yes to the unexpected.
