Title : The Woods of Battandière - Françoise Bourdin - Book

Summary :

Present day, in the Jura region. A woman's struggle to run the forestry business left by her late husband.

Since the death of her first husband, Martial Battandier, Léa has been running the forestry business he left her, in the heart of the Jura region. Managing the estate alone, lacking her late husband's authority or experience, she isn't exactly welcome in the male-dominated world of lumberjacks and loggers. Determined and courageous, she calls on Raphaël, a Water and Forestry engineer who will help her overcome difficulties and teach her the forestry profession.
But Léa must also fight to save her family. Tristan, her second husband, is haunted by Martial's omnipresent image and feels alienated from the family circle. He neglects his own business, sinking deeper into alcoholism every day.
Tired of having to put up with his weaknesses, Léa finally breaks away from Tristan... But when those close to her suggest she leave him, she hesitates to make a decision that could jeopardize her business. Alone in the turmoil, will she manage to free herself from the demons of the past and break free from conventions?
