About this title

About the Author:

Anna Jacobs grew up in Lancashire and emigrated to Australia in 1973, but loves to return to England and visit her family. She has two adult daughters and lives with her husband in a spacious waterfront home.

From Booklist:

What would you do if you unexpectedly became the beneficiary of a will that stipulated a move to another country? For Kirsty Miller, it is the answer to a prayer. Widowed four years ago, she is growing restive working at the library and living with her socially inept brother. She helps an elderly man who is visiting his old haunts one last time, and they quickly become friends. When Kirsty realizes that she hasn’t seen him in awhile, she tries to find him, but is unsuccessful. Soon after, she is contacted by a lawyer who informs her that her friend has died and left everything to her with the condition that she leave England and live in his home in Western Australia for one year. It’s a scary proposition, but she does it and begins a whole new life, albeit one oddly beset by a series of inexplicable accidents and acts of vandalism. As always, Jacobs weaves an engrossing, swift, and sweet tale. --Maria Hatton
