A heartwarming story of love, connection and an extraordinary secret from the past waiting to be uncovered
'I was moved to tears by its quiet beauty and layered characters.' Laura Pearson, author of The Last List of Mabel Beaumont
For fans of Sally Page and Ruth Hogan, comes this heartwarming tale about love, loss and connection
Ernie has had three grand passions in his long life: his dear wife Phyllis, a vintage Norton Dominator motorcycle, and his mini-me son, Stephen. Now, as dementia overwhelms Ernie and takes away everything he can remember about the everyday, memories of those far away times remain crystalline and cherished.
His granddaughter Nina, seventeen, is equally at odds with the everyday. Excluded from college for her lack of concentration, it seems a job in her mother’s greengrocers is the best life can ever offer. Endless time stretches bleakly ahead, yet Nina feels she can barely make it to the end of each day.
Until, that is, Nina stumbles upon a surprise which, it turns out, can save both Ernie and herself…
