Reeda Summer is running from a troubled marriage and a truth she can't face.
When the Summer sisters discover their grandmother's journals after her death, they unlock a mystery that shakes their family to the core. Who is Charlie Jackson? Is he their grandfather? And if so, what happened to him?
Reeda leaves the Waratah Inn and returns to Sydney, her husband, and her thriving interior design business, only to find her marriage in tatters. She's lost sight of what she wants in life and can't recognize the person she's become. Instead of facing her problems, Reeda embarks on a journey to discover more about the grandfather she never knew, leaving her troubles behind her.
Her search takes her to Italy, where a trail of clues leads her across the country with few answers to satisfy her burning curiosity about the past. And instead of helping her to forget, her pilgrimage reminds her of everything she loves and what she's left behind.
Under the Italian sky, Reeda discovers that the joy she was searching for was hidden inside her, all along. And instead of running from her problems, she embraces the healing she needs to face them.
Listeners who enjoyed Inglath Cooper, Rhys Bowen, Lisa Wingate, Debbie Macomber, and Lauren K. Denton will love taking this healing journey through delightful Italy.
Praise for the book:
If you love historical mysteries and all things Italian, you’ll want to live in the pages of this book.” (Bookbub)

Upon the death of the sisters' Grandmother, they find out that the man they thought was their grandfather really wasn't their grandfather. Instead, their father was conceived right before WWII and their real grandfather, Charlie Jackson, was (supposedly) killed when his plane was shot down over Italy.
Reeda decides to travel to Italy, both to try to find out the truth of Charlie's demise and to figure out what to do about her life. The book follows Reeda's discoveries in Italy and also tells the story of Nan and Charlie's lives through letters and journal entries. There was quite a bit of WWII history and I was intrigued by the tales of Charlie's life during this time.
The author does a good job in describing the journeys of the characters and even though the story jumps around a lot, the times and places are well marked throughout the book. My only complaint about the book is that it ends without resolution for any of the storylines. I hope that the subsequent books will resolve the cliffhangers that this one had.
The narrator does a good job and keeps the story moving at a pleasant pace. I was given the chance to listen to the audiobook version of this book by the author/narrator/publisher and chose to review it.

Reeda needs some time away from her life. Her marriage is on the rocks and she is tired of the monthly disappointment when she doesn't get pregnant. So she travels to Italy to see what she can learn about the last known whereabouts of her grandfather. Throughout the trip, Reeda learns more about who she is and what she wants out of life.
Along the way we hear more snapshots of Gran's life and learn bits and pieces about their family history.
After listening to this book, you will want to listen to book 3 to hear the ending of Gran's story. You won't want to miss it!
Narration was perfect for the story and easy to listen to.
