"We all like life to be fair," Xander told himself. "And if only sorting every situation out were as easy as one, two, three, as easy as the maths problems I deal with every day, with their clear answers." Emily and her husband Luke face profound trauma, in their personal lives, in two cases of serious crime, and in local social care. The sudden reappearance of Jimmy, who decades ago abandoned Emily, pregnant with Lily, brings huge distress. How can Lily and Emily, plus Luke, a loving stepfather, forgive Jimmy, and get closure? Unresolved crimes-the mysterious disappearance of Luke's legal client, and an historic murder case-suddenly invade their lives. Alerted to substandard care in a local nursing home, what can Emily and friend Felicity do to resolve matters, ensuring what is right for its residents? Why do things happen all at the same time? Beautiful, evocative Edinburgh plays a central role. When he reappears thirty-five years later, how can you forgive a man who abandoned you when you were pregnant with his baby? And how can one family secure justice for this smörgåsbord of heartache? "A beautifully-crafted novel about nostalgia, relationships lost and found, and themes of forgiveness and justice."
