The scene is set for the perfect summer. Business is booming. The weather couldn’t be better. Best of all, Sam is coming back to Cornwall. For good. A storm is brewing, however. It seems that somebody, somewhere, has it in for Alice, although it is not clear who, or why. As Julie tries to help her friend, she finds her own thoughts turning progressively towards motherhood. Sam, meanwhile, has the pressure of a new job, as well as a stressed-out girlfriend and a teenage daughter to contend with. Fearing for her business, her relationship, and her sanity, can Alice get to the root of the problem before any permanent damage is done? | Sticks and Stones by Katharine E Smith, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
