"Erica's elegant and perceptive storytelling is always a pleasure. Pure class!" — Veronica Henry

Special edition — with a new introduction from Erica James

It also means exchanging a clinical company flat for the pretty but overgrown garden of Ivy Cottage, and the constant attentions of her interfering sister Hilary.

"Erica James' sensitive story of a woman coming to terms with guilt and grief is as sparklingly fresh as dew on the village's surrounding meadows... thoroughly enjoyable" — Sunday Express

"Wry humour and romance... Erica James is a breath of fresh air" — Daily Mail
