Summary
Summary
Roly Carradine has found refuge in Cornwall, in the mellow stone house of his childhood. A broken marriage made Roly remove himself from his busy London life, and here in Cornwall he welcomes Kate, also seeking refuge from the grief of losing her husband, and young Daisy Quin, a dancer recovering from a back injury. Roly's son Nat, a garden designer with his own secret burden to bear, lives not far away and is plagued by the unsympathetic visits of his mother Monica, Roly's ex-wife. Roly, Kate, Daisy, and Nat all try to find resolution in the beauty and peace of the Cornish countryside.Editorial Reviews
Editorial Reviews
“Warmhearted…Appealing, durable, human characters. —Publishers Weekly
“June
Barrie's gravelly, thoroughly English voice conveys character depth and
is easy to listen to. She moves gracefully between the generations,
distinguishing characters with slight adjustments in tone, accent, and
energy.” —AudioFile
“With an agile mastery of multiple story lines and
an uncanny knack for creating sympathetic characters, Willett winsomely
creates congenial worlds that welcome loyal fans and new readers with
ease.” —Booklist

Author Bio: Marcia Willett

She had always loved books, and a family crisis made her take up a new career as a novelist—a decision she has never regretted. She lives in a beautiful, wild part of Devon with her husband, where she loves to be visited by her son and his young family.
