The Family Affairs of Johanne Johansen
Two women at a turning point and a family business on the brink of collapse
Shortly after her 65th birthday, Johanne Johansen discovers that her family business – Kurt Johansen & Sons, a shipping company steeped in tradition – is on the verge of bankruptcy. Her grandparents’ life’s work is on the line. Her cousin Luise is ten years younger than Johanne and happily married. Or so she thought, until her husband suffers a terrible accident and her whole world is suddenly shaken to the core. Although Johanne and Luise don’t necessarily see eye to eye, they must now join forces whether they like it or not: They need to save the company, in which they both have shares.
In this story of two cousins who could hardly be more different, buried secrets are brought to light at last, and there is a last-ditch attempt to save a business that means a whole lot more than it originally seemed.
