Ruth Hogan
Ruth Hogan will mend your heart in this novel about finding hope in times of darkness.
George McGlory is showing off his new shirt to his wife, Audrey. It's got bright-orange parrots on, but he knows she won't say anything. He's talking to the headstone at her grave. Audrey passed away two years ago, and George is still muddling through.
Across the cemetery he sees a lonely coffin with only council pallbearers in attendance. Mrs Kathleen Hooley was eighty-nine and she died safe and warm in her own bed, but had no friends or family to organise a funeral - or even send flowers.
Even through his own grief, George is deeply touched by Kathleen's lonely funeral. No one should be sent out of this world alone, surely?
Not on George's watch. With the help of his friends, he creates the Light a Candle Society, to make sure no one is forgotten. It might just remind him that there's still light in his life, too . . .
An uplifting story about compassion, kindness and finding the joy in starting again, perfect for fans of Mike Gayle, Ruth Jones, Jennie Godfrey or Graham Norton.
