Summary

A heartwarming tale of sibling rivalry, secrets, love and death, steeped in local colour and noise, and tender in its depiction of family at their worst - and their best - from Domenica de Rosa, author of the best-selling Dr Ruth Galloway series under the name Elly Griffiths.

Gaby, the youngest of the de Angelis sisters, always secretly knew she was her father Enzo's favourite; so when Enzo dies on the day her own daughter is born, her life is turned upside down. In the emotional aftermath of the funeral, it emerges that her father has asked that his ashes be taken back his native city, Rome.

Suddenly, Gaby and her new family are thrown headfirst into the wider de Angelis clan and all of their conflicting ideas and opinions. As the family journeys to Rome to say a final good-bye to Enzo, emotions run high, but none higher than Gaby's, as she comes face to face with the man she once thought she would marry and is forced to question everything of which, until now, she was so sure.

Critic reviews

"Witty and as light as a tiramisu but with tart insight on sibling rivalry." (Nottingham Evening Post)
