Publisher Description
Peggy, a near octegenerian, has lived in her home for 40 years. Widowed a decade ago, she is coping well, until her home comes under attack, with no apparent motive.
Daisy, a young woman plagued with obsessions and insecurities, lives in a council flat with her boyfriend who is drowning in addiction. Daisy, haunted by flashbacks of disease smothering her childhood home, finds her life unraveling.
What mysterious forces bring these two distressed souls to Sister Bernadette’s prayer room? A magical haven, home to anyone who enters. There, Daisy confronts the trauma from her childhood, and Peggy contemplates the unthinkable - a trip to Canada, to visit her son.
But nothing could prepare her for what she discovers there.
'Astley's writing is beautifully sympathetic to the human condition.'
