β¦ Synopsis
THE DOOR IS OPEN . . .
For young widow Ellen Wood, her Victorian home is a refugea place to feel safe with her eleven-year-old son, Charlie. But when money grows so tight that Ellen could lose the house, her sister, Hannah, makes a radical suggestion . . . rent out some of the rooms. Soon Ellen has three lodgers: Sabine, a German coworker of Hannahs, recently separated from her husband; Allegra, an eccentric but wise novelist; and Matt, an up-and-coming young journalist in search of his voice, who has just landed a plum job in London.
Ellen thinks three strangers are the last complication she needs, but they make her realize just how isolated she has become. Their presence exposes a secret shes been keeping hidden, as well as a conflict with her sister that is both shocking and revealing. And while a love affair with a younger man seems like a fantasy powered by her imagination, Ellen cant deny her deep connection to Matt, or the changes he inspires in her and her relationship with Charlie. Outside her homes sheltering walls lies a world of opportunity as well as danger. Now that shes had the courage to open the door, does Ellen dare step through?
