About the book
Seeking solace and connection, she embarks on the Italian holiday they had planned to take together – a journey that becomes something far more unexpected when she encounters a woman who bears an uncanny resemblance to her mother, but thirty years younger. Set against the stunning Amalfi Coast, this moving story explores the bonds between mothers and daughters, the paths not taken, and the power of understanding our parents as people in their own right. Through sun-drenched days and revelatory encounters, it asks profound questions about love, loss, and the courage to forge one's own path whilst honouring those who came before.
