2000s: Where does the Endless Beach start and finish?
On the quayside next to the Endless Beach sits the Summer Seaside Kitchen. It’s a haven for tourists and locals alike, who all come to eat the freshest local produce on the island and catch up with the gossip. Flora, who runs the cafe, feels safe and content – unless she thinks too hard about her relationship with Joel, her gorgeous but emotionally (and physically) distant boyfriend.
While Flora is in turmoil about her relationship. her best friend Lorna is pining after the local doctor. Saif came to the island as a refugee, having lost all of his family. But he’s about to get some shocking news which will change everything for him.
As cold winter nights shift to long summer days, can Flora find her happy-ever-after with Joel?
Mure is sadly a fictional place – Jenny writes in her author note that she wanted to capture the essence and feel of the amazing highland island such as Lewis, Bute, Harris, Orkney and Shetland, the latter which she thinks is one of the strangest and loveliest places in the UK as far as she is concerned.
She is from the South of Scotland herself and is therefore not an islander but trater a lallander, but she loves the highlands and the vast white beaches the ancient strange monuments; the flat treeless places as trees can’t really grow in stonr winds. As for the long endless summer nights where it never really gets dark . And now there is a summer seaside kitchen there too!
