An Ocean Apart

Trade Paperback

A compelling and contemporary love story of family relationships and human nature.

When his wife dies of cancer, David's life falls apart. Unable to pick up the pieces, he withdraws from his children, his parents and his work, devoting all efforts to restoring a garden, cultivating an order and beauty he is denied elsewhere.

Forced into a business trip in America, he hits rock bottom and then, through his friendship with an unhappy young boy, he finds the strength to recover and regain a longing for home.
