Book Synopsis

Reading Roisin Meaney''s novels is like ''sitting down with a good friend over a cup of tea'' (Irish Mail on Sunday)

It''s Una Darling''s seventeenth birthday, but nobody feels much like celebrating. It''s been exactly a year since the tragic death of her father Finn, and the people he left behind have been doing their best to get on with things. But it hasn''t been easy.

Daphne is tired of sadness, of mourning the long life she and her husband were meant to share, but doesn''t quite know how to get past it. And she can''t seem to get through to her stepdaughter -- they barely speak anymore, so Daphne knows nothing of the unexpected solace Una has found, or of the risk she''s about to take.

When Una fails to appear for a birthday tea with her family, Daphne suddenly realises how large the distance between them has grown. Will she be given the chance to make things right?
