Publisher's Synopsis

The sequel to Hector and the Search for Happiness, which sold over two million copies worldwide, Hector and the Secrets of Love is a fable filled with thoughtful insights into the very human desire to find and hold onto love.

What is the secret formula for love? Hector, our intrepid psychiatrist, sets off on a new globe-trotting mission and this time he's looking for love. One of the world's largest pharmaceutical companies has employed him to track down their brilliant scientist, Professor Cormorant, who has disappeared abroad with the secret of a modern-day love potion. Leaving behind his troubled relationship with girlfriend Clara, Hector's adventure takes him to the Far East and into the arms of beautiful Vayla, forcing our hero to think deeply about what love really is and what it really means. This is the follow-up to the multi-million-selling Hector and the Search for Happiness by acclaimed writer and psychiatrist, François Lelord.
