People come to the guest house for fresh air and views across the
Atlantic. But if they're lucky, they might just leave with the
second chance they didn't know they needed... Esme has run the
guest house for as long as anyone in Ballycove can remember. But in
her declining years, her sight is failing, and when she has a fall
on the eve of the summer season, she is forced to take a back seat
for the first time in her life. From her chair in the entry hall,
not much passes Esme by. There's Cora, the wife visiting
indefinitely... without her husband; Niamh, the city professional
with a life-changing decision to make; and Phyllie, the grandmother
whose family is slipping away from her. Esme's guests provide the
colour that helps her keep her grip on the world. All of them have
something they want to escape – or to hold on to. But can Esme
help them find their way before the summer is over? From
bestselling Irish writer Faith Hogan comes a new, uplifting story
about discovering love, friendship and the healing power of the
Irish sea air. It will charm fans of Sheila O'Flanagan, Heidi Swain
and Susanne O'Leary. 'Once again Faith pulls you into her world
instantly and never lets you go, with such an incredibly real cast
of characters who you feel actually exist. A Life affirming and
unputdownable read.' Phillipa Ashley 'What a delight this book is.
A gorgeous cast of characters, the perfect seaside setting and
Faith Hogan’s wonderful talent for dialogue all come together to
make this a lovely feel-good story with an ending that will cheer
your heart.' Imogen Clark
