Book Description:
In a wintry landscape in the Swedish countryside, the paths of two women cross. One bleak March evening Veronika, a young writer, arrives in a small village in pursuit of stillness and solitude to enable her to come to terms with grief and loss, and to complete a novel. Her arrival is silently observed by Astrid, her elderly, reclusive neighbour, who in the safety of her home guards dark family secrets and personal tragedy. As the icy winter gives way to spring, the two women are drawn together. Against a backdrop of changing seasons, they embark on a tender and unusual friendship. What happens will change the lives of both women for ever.

Review by Margaret 
I wish I knew her name so I could thank her. I was told by a customer that this was the most wonderful book she'd read, so I had to read it. From the first words inviting me into their worlds, I knew I would love it. Astrid and Veronica are both such beautiful characters, the friendship they forge is so selfless it cannot help but touch your heart and the words flow and touch as poetry, I hope this worked brings you as much pleasure as it did me. You will need a good supply of tissues. Enjoy.
