About this ebook
A woman starts asking questions about her past—changing the direction of her future: “Dempsey writes with such warmth and affection.” —Claire Allan, USA Today–bestselling author of Her Name was Rose
Ava Connors is comfortable with her life just as it is, still living in the tiny terrace house in Belfast where she was brought up by her grandmother, Maggie; seeing her long-term boyfriend, Finlay; and working in a florist. But Maggie’s health is declining, and Finlay is fed up waiting for Ava to make a commitment.
Ava never really knew her mother, and when she inherits an old, dilapidated house it ignites an interest in the woman who abandoned her as a child. Soon Ava begins to ask questions about why—setting in motion a series of events that will change her comfortable life forever—in a novel about the relationships we take for granted and the questions we ask of those we love.
