A heartwarming, and heartbreaking, multi-generational novel from
the bestselling author Alexander McCall Smith--a tale of unrequited
love, and the unexpected places it takes us.
This love story begins on a small Caribbean island, Grand Cayman,
with 2 people who meet as children, and over 20 years and 4
continents will fall in love. At age 6 Clover falls in love,
although she doesn't know it as such until years later, with her
best friend, James. He doesn't seem to reciprocate her feelings,
but he does enjoy being her friend. She and James happily spend all
their time together--until the year that their game of "spy"
inadvertently catches her mother and his father in a clandestine
conversation. While Clover and James enjoy their freedom, we meet
her mother, Amanda, who is surprised to suddenly realize one day
that she has fallen out of love with her husband, and she is
trapped in her marriage. Amanda is then equally surprised to learn
that George, James's father, is also unhappily married--and is
interested in her. The adults and the children must navigate their
way through the complicated, confusing maze of love and desire in
Alexander McCall Smith's beautiful and lyrical tale about the many
kinds of love--first love, unrequited love, true love--that's sure
to be embraced by readers of all generations.
