'The many fans of Meaney would be delighted to find this book in their Christmas stocking' Irish Independent

It's three days before Christmas . . .

Tilly boards a plane on the other side of the world. She's determined to reach Roone, a small island off the west coast of Ireland, in time for Christmas Day. Tilly carries a troubling secret and Laura, a woman she's never met, might be the only one who can help her.

Except that Laura has no idea that Tilly exists. And with five children, a mother-in-law stranded on the island and a husband with whom she's barely on speaking terms, an unexpected Christmas guest is the last thing she needs.

As Tilly's journey brings her ever closer to Roone, a storm is also heading for the island - will she make it in time for Christmas?
