A man driven to discover who he is by studying the people and places he's come from, Douglas McCombs spends his days in the library researching his ancestry. With the help of Suzy Hamilton, a research librarian with a similar interest in genealogy, Douglas discovers not only the true nature of his past, but also a brand-new purpose in the aftermath of losing his wife to Alzheimer's. In the process of uncovering the truth behind his ancestors' tales of obsession, betrayal, and loyalty, Douglas develops first a revitalizing friendship and ultimately a tender romance with Suzy. Part love story, part historical fiction, and deeply rooted in the people and culture of Scotland, this is a dual narrative that unfolds both as vignettes depicting the lives and loves of Douglas' ancestors, as well as the overarching narrative of Douglas' present day. This book is an engaging read that will have broad appeal, especially among readers who have experienced the descent of a loved one into dementia or Alzheimer's, those interested in genealogy, and those who simply enjoy a good love story.
