Nach dem Tod ihrer Mutter kehrt Roz Australien den Rücken und trägt nur einen Ring mit einem leuchtenden Opal bei sich, ein Erbstück, das sie bei der Räumung ihres Zuhauses entdeckt hat. In London, zwischen den antiken Schätzen eines kleinen Ladens, fühlt sie sich auf beinahe mystische Weise von einem Gemälde angezogen, das vier Felsen an der Küste Schottlands zeigt. Von einer unstillbaren Sehnsucht getrieben, reist sie nach Skara, in die Heimat der verstorbenen Malerin.

When Lizzie Stevens was eighteen, life took a wrong turn. While her best friends Harriet and Anna went interrailing across Europe, Lizzie stayed behind—shunted into a dusty bank job and a sensible life that never quite got back on track. Now sixty-four, freshly divorced from terminally dull Freddie and wondering how she ended up here, Lizzie is unexpectedly reunited with the friends who left her behind. This time, she's not missing the train. Their plan? A gloriously reckless rail adventure across Europe.

And when a chance comes to bask in the French sun for a glorious month, there's only one thing for it. Suitcase packed, Max heads off to the Brittany town of Plouvannec-Sur-Mer – home of tempting boulangeries, breath-taking beaches, not to mention some rather fine looking men of the perfect vintage.
