IMG_3943.png

Have you ever had a friend you could completely trust? Someone you could tell your deepest thoughts and terrible secrets? And really know they would never use them against you?

Ruth has a friend like that who only she can see and hear. Lying grievously ill and despondent in a hospital in the West of Ireland, she opens up to her Friend’s encouraging questions and genuine interest. He initiates conversations about her relationships and the life events that have shaped her.

Paudie, her annoying husband visits too, and we learn about her adult children and other relatives.

Tales of marriage and family life; friendship and love; passion, laughter and frustration.

Will she now have the chance to rewrite her story?

And who exactly is her Friend?

Recommendation: "I was fascinated" - Bishop Laurie Green, author
