Book Description Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. 'The stars shimmer like spilled handfuls of glitter. The day is beginning to rise with a faint mist. As I turn my head, ghostly halos, auras of light, appear and disappear. The silence is truly awesome. Not a bird, not a whisper of wind, not a breath of life. Only the two of us, a most implausible pair, standing shoulder to shoulder gazing upon an awakening heaven.'Returning to their home after an extended absence Carol and her husband Michel are looking forward to summer together on the farm.
