Summer at the Garden Cafe (Finfarran 2): A feel-good story about the power of friendship and of books
Felicity Hayes-McCoy
Fiction, Modern & contemporary fiction (post c 1945)
It's summer on the Finfarran Peninsula and as the inhabitants of Lissbeg prepare for the tourists, secrets are in the air ...
Finfarran Book 2
A heart-warming story about the healing power of books, love and friendship.
A place where plans are formed and secrets are shared, the Garden Cafe is nestled at the heart of the town of Lissbeg, on Ireland's west coast.
But Jazz - still reeling from the truth about her parents' marriage - has more on her mind than the gossip at the cafe. Increasingly isolated from her friends and family, she finds herself developing feelings for a man who is strictly off-limits ...
Meanwhile Hanna, Lissbeg's librarian, is unaware of the turmoil in her daughter Jazz's life - until her ex-husband Malcolm makes an appearance. And she begins to wonder if the secrets she's carried for him might have done more harm than good.
Then Hanna discovers a long-lost book buried in her garden. Could this help to turn Jazz's summer around, or is she too late?
