In this book Belinda, a divorced woman and grandmother to twins, is asked by her employers to go to Brittany to troubleshoot the improvement of their latest business venture; a camping site. For Belinda the task is problematical, she spent her childhood in Brittany before an emotional crisis caused her mother to suddenly decided to return to England and sever all links with her father. On her deathbed her mother had made her promise to return and 'settle old ghosts' but Belinda hadn't yet had the time to do so.
Fern runs the auberge in the village, it was the family home of her late French husband. Divorced from her first husband she had been so happy to find love again but a car crash had taken that happiness away. She had invested her savings into turning the house into a business but the house was not her's although she was entitled to live in it. When Belinda comes to stay she realises how isolated grief has made her.
The book is an easy read with enough twists to retain interest, that and the appreciation of a different lifestyle which involves food, walks in the country and nights when you can see the stars in a virtually silent world make this book an enjoyable read.



And having the 'h' left out at the start of certain words, but not all, I found totally pointless. The reader knows the person speaking is French, it didn't need the above to authenticate it.
Apart from that, a really enjoyable read, with a different story line from most of today's books that are set abroad.
