Description

Bestselling Irish writer, Faith Hogan, has created another gripping saga of friendship, betrayal and secrets in this story of a widow in search of answers to a shocking confession by her dying husband. Joy Blackwood has no idea why her French art dealer husband has left a valuable painting to a woman called Robyn Tessier in Ballycove, a small town on the west coast of Ireland, but she is determined to find out. She arrives in Ballycove to find that Robyn runs a rather chaotic and unprofitable bookshop. She is shy, suffering from unrequited love for dashing Kian, and badly in need of advice on how to make the bookshop successful. As Joy gets drawn into the dramas of everyday life in the town, she finds it more and more difficult to confess why she really came, let alone find the truth about the painting she brought with her. When she does finally summon up the courage, it sets the cat amongst the pigeons in the close-knit, friendly community she has come to love. PRAISE FOR THE GUEST HOUSE BY THE SEA: 'Utterly enchanting! I would wholeheartedly welcome a week or two being looked after by Esme in beautiful Ballycove.' Heidi Swain 'Once again Faith pulls you into her world instantly and never lets you go, with such an incredibly real cast of characters who you feel actually exist. A Life affirming and unputdownable read.' Phillipa Ashley 'I LOVED it. There is a glow that comes from all of Faith's books that warms every part of me. ' Cathy Kelly 'A beautiful and intriguing story celebrating self-discovery, friendship and family bonds.' Phaedra Patrick, bestselling author of The Library of Lost and Found 'What a delight this book is. A gorgeous cast of characters, the perfect seaside setting and Faith Hogans wonderful talent for dialogue all come together to make this a lovely feel-good story with an ending that will cheer your heart.' Imogen Clark, bestselling author of Impossible to Forget
