Description
Rez.: Der Bezug des deutschen Titels zum Buch ist der Rezensentin unerfindlich geblieben. Auf amerikanisch heißt es "The Spring", und diese Quelle in der Nähe des paradiesisch abgelegenen Gebirgdorfs, in das die Liebe einen erfolgreichen Rechtsanwalt aus der Stadt, verschlagen hat, ist - um das etwas alberne Geheimnis, dessen Auflösung freilich zahlreiche Winke mit dem Scheunentor frühzeitig vorwegnehmen, hier gleich auszuplaudern - ein Jungbrunnen und wird von der verschworenen Gemeinschaft der Einheimischen eifersüchtig gehütet. Bei seinen Recherchen im Zusammenhang mit 2 seltsamen Todesfällen entdeckt der Held die tragische Schattenseite der ewigen Jugend. Ein eher schlichter Thriller mit Pseudo-Tiefgang. Sonderbar rüstig sind die alten Leute in dem paradiesisch abgelegenen Gebirgsdorf, in das die Liebe den erfolgreichen Rechtsanwalt Dennis Conway verschlagen hat. Bei seinen Recherchen entdeckt er die tragische Schattenseite solch ewiger Jugend.
