Tom's been lonely since his wife Trudy left, taking little Peter with her to go join the holy rollers. Enter Hannah Babel, quixotic bookseller: the second Jew - and the most vivid person - Tom has ever met. When she asks him to move in, and help her build Australia's most beautiful bookshop, Tom dares to believe they could make each other happy. But Tom Hope is taking on a battle with heartbreak he can barely even begin to imagine. Perfect for fans of 'The Light Between Oceans'.
