Publisher's summary

The remarkable new novel from Matt Haig, author of the #1 New York Times bestseller The Midnight Library, which has sold more than nine million copies worldwide

“What looks like magic is simply a part of life we don’t understand yet . . . ”

When retired math teacher Grace Winters inherits a run-down house on the Mediterranean island of Ibiza from a long-lost friend, curiosity gets the better of her. Grace arrives in Ibiza with a one-way ticket, no guidebook and no plan.

Among the rugged hills and golden beaches of the island, Grace searches for answers about her friend’s life and how it ended. What she uncovers is stranger than she could have possibly dreamed. But to dive into this impossible truth, Grace must first come to terms with her past.

Filled with wonder and wild adventure, this is a story of hope and the life-changing power of a new beginning.

Unexpected

This was not the type of novel I was expecting from Matt Haig having read How to Stop Time and the Midnight Library but that’s not to say I didn’t enjoy it because I very much did and found myself laughing out loud at points. Loved the setting, the characters and the plot. It just shows our versatile an author Matt Haig is. I think Joanna Lumley did a very good audio.
