Description
Katherine Carter's world has been turned upside down after the sudden death of her business partner and closest friend, Edwin Brown. With no will to speak of, she finds herself at the mercy of her lecherous brother-in-law, Gerald, who claims the restaurant and home they built together as his inheritance. But Katherine is determined to rebuild her life, and with the help of her cook's sister Milly, she takes lodgings in a new part of town. As she navigates this difficult time, Katherine finds solace in helping her neighbours through their own struggles. In doing so, she begins to confront the troubled past that has haunted her for so long. But even as she starts to rebuild, a sense of unease settles over the country, hinting at the horrors that are to come. In this powerful and moving novel, Dee Williams explores themes of loss, resilience, and the human spirit's capacity for hope and friendship in the face of adversity.
