From the bestselling author of The Tea Ladies of St Jude’s Hospital comes this witty and touching story about living life in the moment. This engaging, tender, and funny novel tells the tale of husband-and-wife Alan and Heather Winterbottom whose individual plans for retirement put them completely at odds with each other. Anxious for a taste of adventure, Heather decides to take a year off from her life and Alan and heads off on an odyssey of her own. In Greece, she’s met with unforgettable experiences, temptations, and pitfalls, and through it all she learns what’s really important. I genuinely enjoyed this thoroughly human and relatable novel.
