About this listen

A sweeping story set against the lush riverside of the Norfolk Broads about a group of longtime friends learning how to live life to its fullest during one dramatic summer.

Linston End on the Norfolk Broads has been the holiday home to three families for many years. The memories of their time there are ingrained in their hearts: picnics on the river, gin and tonics in the pavilion at dusk, hours spent seeking out the local swallowtail butterflies. Everyone together. But widower Alastair has been faced with a few of life's surprises recently. Now, he is about to shock his circle of friends with the decisions he has made - and the changes it will mean for them all. For some, it feels like the end. For others, it might just be the beginning....

A story about friendship, making changes and learning to live life to the fullest from best seller Erica James.

Another character filled story by Erica. Sad to finish it as I miss the characters. But a very enjoyable read and good character development.

Lovely escape story

I usually really enjoy Eric James books but this one was 65 chapters and probably 20 too long. The story dragged on and jumped around too much. Too many unanswered questions and inconsistencies.

Good storyline
