Description
A book designed to be read in a dark January chill; it begs for a fireside and the sound of wind and rain howling outside THE LADY
This winter, escape to a warm and wonderful clifftop hotel with the world's favourite storyteller. Now with a brand new introduction by Cathy Bramley, bestselling author of Merrily Ever After.
Sometimes she would go and walk the cliffs at night and look out over the ocean...
Set high on the cliffs on the west coast of Ireland, Stone House was falling into disrepair until one woman, with a past she needed to forget, breathed new life into the place. Now a hotel with a big warm kitchen and log fires, it provides a welcome few can resist. And so gather the guests: some with secrets, some longing to leave their old lives behind, and some hoping the break at Stone House will help them find a way to face the future...
A book to treasure HELLO
Full of her trademark warmth, humour and lovable characters WOMAN
