When Elizabeth’s husband dies, leaving her with crippling debt, she must turn to her friend, Jo for help, who calls in her daughter, Lucy to run the village surgery. Leaving her city life, and past demons, behind, Lucy is determined to make the most of her fresh start.

As life slowly begins to resemble something normal for the three women, Jo’s world is turned upside down when she receives some shocking news.

Travel Guide

The BookTrail search for a small Irish village

Wouldn’t it be wonderful if you could find a place that made you feel like this?

“Don’t you feel alive? I feel the same thing every day I come here. It anchors me in a place that’s mine within the vastness.”

‘Ballycove’ is a fictional setting but it’s more than likely a hybrid of several little places dotted along the north west Atlantic coast and around Ireland in general.

It’s a lovely challenge to find your own Ballycove!
