Suzie, a widow with two grown-up daughters, has made a success of
her life - until, at a public event, she is faced by the man she
last saw as a teenager, forty years ago. James, once a history
student, is now an Anglican priest in Oxford, battling his own
demons and trying to mend the sins of the past. When he says he
wants to find the child Suzie gave up for adoption in the 1960s,
her shock turns to fury. After what he did - and after such a
betrayal - how dare he even ask? Determined to spell things out for
James, Suzie has questions of her own. The answers change her
perspective, but if she agrees to search for her adopted son, she
must face her own guilt as well as fears that her son may, in turn,
reject her. Over the succeeding months, she and James grow closer.
The old attraction isn't dead, and while desire battles with
resentment on Suzie's part, James is struggling with principle and
belief. From rural Yorkshire to the tragic world of mother-and-baby
homes, the past takes Suzie to the bright lights of London, life
with her artist husband, and back to recent times in York. But only
when she's faced with death in the high Pennines, can she begin to
heal; and only when James has laid the past to rest, can he begin
to forgive himself.
