Beschreibung
From the world's favourite author of The No. 1 Ladies' Detective Agency, this novel is about chance encounters; it is richly atmospheric and packed with compassion and humour. Often a small and seemingly insignificant event can change the course of our lives. Not long after starting a new job, Neil meets Chrissie. Romance soon blossoms and together they move to a lavish flat in Edinburgh. Everything seems to be falling into place perfectly. But an innocuous, throw-away comment unintentionally causes Neil's career to collapse, and, at the same time, a cruel betrayal shatters the life he thought he knew. His only option is to escape to the secluded, remote beauty of a breathtaking Hebridean island. Here, he finds a different way of life, and new friendships develop. But he can't escape the past forever, and soon he must confront a life-changing decision once more. Praise for Alexander McCall Smith's writing:'The author's prose has the merits of simplicity, euphony and precision. This is art that conceals art' Sunday Telegraph'Bags of warmth and wisdom and easy, accomplished writing that begs for a comfy chair' The Times'Charming, delightful, feel-good stuff' Daily Express
