When Madeleine Napier's husband, Sir Charles, dies, she is left with Drumveyn, a remote, crumbling house in a snug Scottish glen. And the stunning realization that she had, for her twenty-six years of marriage, no life of her own, and that her two married children have become strangers. But as Madeleine begins reassessing her future and Drumveyn's, her daughter and her son rally to her in unexpected suppport.
Now change comes to Drumveyn as surprise visitors arrive - a lonesome child surrounded by secrets; a zany young cook able to serve up laughter even as she hides her tears; and a solid, quiet man whose arms are as strong as his resolve. And gradually Madeleine gets the chance to explore the hidden places of her heart - in a story aglow with feeling and alive with love.
