In good condition - ex library - has markings from use - due to differing weights on books, postage maybe adjusted at checkout.
It is the 1930s and when her beloved husband John suddenly dies, young Ellie Hogan decides to leave Ireland and return to New York. She hopes that the city's vibrancy will distract her from her grief. But the Depression has rendered the city unrecognizable - gone is the energy and party atmosphere that Ellie fell in love with ten years before.
Ellie plunges headfirst into a new life, pouring all her passion and energy into running a home and refuge for the homeless. In return they give her the kind of love, support and friendship she needs to try to overcome her grief. Until, one day, someone she thought she'd never see again steps through her door. It seems that even the Atlantic isn't big enough to prevent the tragedies of the past catching up with her...
