β¦ Synopsis
The enchanting new novel from Sunday Times bestselling author, Santa Montefiore. The perfect summer read for 2019!
'Let the wind take me and the soft rain settle me into the Irish soil from where I came. And may my sins be forgiven.'
Arethusa Clayton has always been formidable, used to getting her own way. On her death, she leaves unexpected instructions. Instead of being buried in America, on the wealthy East Coast where she and her late husband raised their two children, Arethusa has decreed that her ashes be scattered in a remote corner of Ireland, on the hills overlooking the sea.
All Arethusa ever told Faye was that she grew up in a poor farming family and left Ireland, alone, to start a new life in America as did so many in those times of hardship and famine. But who were her family in Ireland and where are they now? What was the real reason that she turned away from them? And who is the mysterious benefactor of a significant share...
