Salt In The Air, Secrets In The Blood: One Woman's Legacy Of Huntington's Disease
Salt in the Air, Secrets in the Blood is the warm and courageous memoir of Raine Lees — a woman who has lived a full, love-filled life and who tells it all with honesty and humour, even as Huntington's disease casts its long shadow across her family's story. From a vivid Yorkshire childhood full of pink Cadillacs, dancing shoes, and a glamorous, eccentric mother, Raine traces her journey through first loves, heartbreak, motherhood, life at sea, and adventures across the Atlantic. Through the rebuilding of herself after loss, falling in love again, and ultimately facing her own diagnosis with hard-won acceptance, she arrives at a place of genuine joy. Woven throughout is the hidden thread of Huntington's — a genetic secret that shaped her family across generations — and Raine's determination to pass on not just the truth of it, but the fullness of a life bravely and beautifully lived.
