A sweeping story set against the lush riverside of the Norfolk Broads about a group of longtime friends learning how to live life to its fullest during one dramatic summer.

Linston End on the Norfolk Broads has been the holiday home to three families for many years. The memories of their time there are ingrained in their hearts: picnics on the river, gin and tonics in the pavilion at dusk, hours spent seeking out the local swallowtail butterflies. Everyone together. But widower Alastair has been faced with a few of life's surprises recently. Now, he is about to shock his circle of friends with the decisions he has made - and the changes it will mean for them all. For some, it feels like the end. For others, it might just be the beginning . . .

A story about friendship, making changes, and learning to live life to the fullest from bestseller Erica James.©2019 Erica James (P)2019 W. F. Howes Ltd Family Life Fiction Friendship Genre Fiction Relationships Small Town & Rural Women's Fiction Heartfelt

I really thought I would enjoy a book about where I love to holiday but was quite disappointed found it slow and not about boards as much as I had expected

Enjoyed the story but the narration I found awful. Struggled to carry on listening but wanted to hear the ending.

Difficult to listen to

This is a fantastic book. This is not like “The Holiday” ie it’s a tad heavier. I was a bit surprised by that. However, the plot twists were right. Also I most commend the narrator. I very rarely listen to books narrated by men (Stephen Fry doing Harry Potter being the exception) but dude really did well! I enjoyed it immensely. Thank you.

She’s done it again!
