Synopsis

Fate can put two people in the exact right place at the exact right time. And just as easily it can tear them apart.

As winter turns to spring on the North Cornish coast, Kerensa O’Connell receives an unexpected message relating to a passionate relationship deep in her past. A message that stirs up memories threatening to derail her comfortable life and her marriage.

At a crossroads in her life, she has lost the inspiration for her photography work and the person she used to be. Battling both mental and physical health issues, worrying about her elderly parents and juggling a busy life - Kerensa has become invisible. When she finds herself unable to take photographs, her agent encourages her to write a memoir. This forces her to piece together her stories of love, adventure and heartbreak, and finally confront some long-buried truths.

Simultaneously unfolding over a few months and several decades, the story moves from the windswept plains of East Africa to the stunning islands of the Great Barrier Reef, the tranquil mountains of the Himalayas, and the bustling cities of Europe.

An unforgettable love story about wanderlust, heartbreak and colliding life paths.

A lyrical meditation on the importance of our memories and a reminder that sometimes, letting go of the past can take a whole lifetime.

Kind words:

"Siobhan's debut is a powerfully, evocatively, emotionally and poetically written story of love, loss, friendship, secrets and above all, introspection and how the passage of the time and the effects that life experiences have on our journey through life."

“The author writes beautifully, lyrically, truthfully and with great compassion and the book spoke to me deeply, because this is the crossroads of life I am at myself and it can be very frightening and disorientating.”

“The descriptive prose brought the book to life, capturing the senses and bringing both the different locations to life. This is a beautiful, intense and joyful read of one woman’s journey through life: Pure escapism.”
