Description

The life you lived. The life you loved. The life you left
For fans of Jojo Moyes and Cecelia Ahern.
It started out like any other day for Sarah Lawler; getting the kids ready for school, making the pack lunches and juggling baby Ellas feeds.

There was no way of knowing that her husband, Paul, would leave for work that morning and simply not come home.

Now the questions are piling up quicker than the unpaid bills and, unable to answer her childrens questions about where their Daddy is, Sarah is getting desperate.

But it turns out she isnt quite as alone as she thought she was. When her beloved childhood friend, Edward, comes back into her life, Sarah thinks shes finally been thrown a life line.

Theres just one problem with Edward: Sarah is the only person who can see him.

Author Bio

Carmel Harrington is an exciting voice in women's fiction - twice shortlisted for the Irish Book Awards, she has the potential to fill the Maeve Binchy slot with her warm, moving and deeply felt novels about family life. She's extremely well connected in the Irish literary world. She chairs the Wexford Literary Festival and is on the panel of TV3's Elaine Show. Carmel has a strong base in Ireland but her voice captures readers' hearts all over the world and we'd now like to grow her in the UK and in Australia as well as accelerating growth in Ireland. Her stories are heart-warming, deeply emotional, and deal with some dark themes but are always ultimately uplifting.
