Finfarran Book 5
'I was utterly charmed - a pitch-perfect delight' Marian Keyes
'A sparkling, life-affirming novel' Cathy Kelly
Eager to cheer up her recently-widowed gran, Cassie Fitzgerald persuades Lissbeg library to set up a Skype book club, linking readers on Ireland's Finfarran Peninsula with the little US town of Resolve, where generations of Finfarran's emigrants have settled.
But when the club decides to read a detective novel, old conflicts on both sides of the ocean are exposed, hidden love affairs come to light, and, as secrets emerge, Cassie fears she may have done more harm than good. Will the truths she uncovers about her granny Pat's marriage affect her own hopes of finding love? Is Pat, who's still struggling with the death of her husband, about to fall out with her oldest friend? Or could the transatlantic book club itself hold the clue to a triumphant happy ending?
A new book club forges links between Finfarran and a small American town - but when long-buried secrets come to the surface, will relationships between Finfarran's residents be put in jeopardy?
