A converted stone farmhouse on the Irish coast is about to receive
its first guests in this warmly captivating story for fans of Maeve
Binchy and Monica McInerney With its brightly painted front door,
white-sash windows and garden path sweeping down toward the sea,
Lizzie O's guesthouse promises a welcome escape from the world.
Aisling and Mick Fitzgerald are travelling all the way from
Tasmania to celebrate their wedding anniversary, but Aisling is
burdened with a secret that could ruin their marriage. Declan
Byrne, exhausted from an unhealthy routine of long hours, takeaway
and too much red wine, has spontaneously taken the week off to
visit the village of his childhood summers. Katie Daly returns to
West Cork after an absence of 35 years to care for her ageing
mother only to find she must confront her painful past. Finally,
Mia Montgomery is taking this holiday without telling her husband.
Each of this group of strangers is at a crossroads. And one week in
the middle of winter may change all of their lives. 'A profoundly
moving read... a skilled storyteller possessed of a supreme ability
for building characters about whom we care and whose words are a
balm. I look forward to reading more of Esther Campion' Living Arts

Australian fiction' CATHY KELLY 'Joins the captivating Maeve Binchy
