New York Times bestselling author Jenny Colgan returns to the setting of her beloved Little Beach Street Bakery series for a timely and heartfelt novel set in a Cornish seaside village.
Marisa Rosso can’t understand why everyone else is getting on with their lives as she still struggles to get over the death of her beloved grandfather, back home in Italy. Everyone loses grandparents, right? Why is she taking it so badly?
Retreating further and further from normal life, she moves to the end of the earth—the remote tidal island of Mount Polbearne, at the foot of Cornwall, hoping for peace and solitude, whilst carrying on her job as a registrar, dealing with births, weddings, and deaths, even as she feels life is passing her by.
Unfortunately—or fortunately?—the solitude she craves proves elusive. Between her noisy Russian piano-teaching neighbor, the bustle and community spirit of the tiny village struggling back to life after the quarantine, and the pressing need to help save the local bakery, can Marisa find her joy again at the end of the world?

Det var et hyggeligt gensyn med beboerne på den lille ø, dog med et forfriskende nyt perspektiv fra en tilflytter. At hovedkarakteren lider af sorg-udløst angst og man gennemgår healingen med hende, er også ganske godt beskrevet. Et vigtigt emne at belyse indefra, hvilket lykkes Jenny Colgan fint.

Absolut ikke en af hendes bedste! Stemningen blev aldrig helt dragende, historien var flad, og der skete nærmest intet. Det var dejligt, at høre om de personer, som vi kender fra de forrige bøger - men desværre var de ikke tro mod de tidligere personbeskrivelser (fra de forrige bøger). Men oplæseren var skøn ;)
