About the Book

Media executive Leen MacLeen, lawyer Sarah Calder, university professor Dr. Amy Keiffers, and psychiatrist Dr. Becky Sutherland have been best friends for over twenty-five years. When Leen is given the task of organizing a New York Gala to honour famed but reclusive author, playwright, photographer "Claire Holowitz-", she has no idea how her life and the lives of her friends will be changed. If Leen can find and convince Claire to attend the Gala, she will achieve what no one else in the media world has been able to do for forty years. Claire has not made any public appearances or granted media interviews since the tragic deaths of her husband and daughter. But is Leen willing to pay the price for achieving her goals? Is she willing to risk making a hard choice between friendship and betrayal? To complicate matters, lawyer Marc Andre Aumount finds himself drawn to Leen but owes his first loyalty to his client, Claire Holowitz. Without his cooperation and ability to gain Leen access to directors, artists, and people who have known Claire, the Gala will not be a success. When Leen discovers that Amy's quaint senior neighbour, Anna Wright, knows a great deal about Claire's novels and contributions to the Arts, she asks for Anna's help. Reluctant but curious, Anna agrees. But Anna has secrets of her own and she too will have to make choices. Leen's Search for Claire Holowitz will challenge the importance of friendship, test the meaning of forgiveness, and question the courage it takes to right a wrong. All five women will learn that sometimes in life it is necessary to take a chance on what she knows to be true.
About the Author: Helen Hansen lives in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. She has one daughter who lives and works in Vancouver, British Columbia. In 2002, she was honoured to receive the Prime Minister's Award for Teaching Excellence. A stroke in 2006 necessitated her retirement from teaching and position as a Seconary High School Principal. Writing became the means and therapy to regain her use of words. She credits her success to the support of her family and friends. The Search for Claire Holowitz was, as she likes to say, "her primer in relearning how to communicate" and is her debut novel.
