An amazing read by Faith Hogan centering around an family on the West Coast of Ireland. The main character (Miranda) develops a friendship with Richard, the mill owners grandson, at a young age. The close friendship develops over several years when a tragedy causes a separation. Richard goes away to school in England and Miranda stays in Ireland. They stay in touch through letters. After a while the letters stop and both move on in their lives. Miranda marries Paddy who inherits the mill, thru Richards family, which is tetering on bankruptcy. He strives to save the mill while starting a family with Miranda..3 children and about 10 years later Paddy dies and Miranda is left to successfully tend the mill.
The story follows the lives of the now adult children and Miranda and how they come back home to Ireland to celebrate the 150th anniversary of the mill.
This is a great story. It is not a thriller or a mystery.
I have enjoyed all the books this author has written and am anxious to read more of her work.
