Winter Solstice by Rosamunde Pilcher
In Winter Solstice Rosamunde Pilcher brings her readers into the lives of five very different people....
Elfrida
Phipps, once of London's stage, moved to the English village of Dibton
in hopes of making a new life for herself. Gradually she settled into
the comfortable familiarity of village life -- shopkeepers knowing her
tastes, neighbors calling her by name -- still she finds herself lonely.
Oscar Blundell gave up his life as a musician in order to
marry Gloria. They have a beautiful daughter, Francesca, and it is only
because of their little girl that Oscar views his sacrificed career as
worthwhile.
Carrie returns from Australia at the end of an
ill-fated affair with a married man to find her mother and aunt sharing a
home and squabbling endlessly. With Christmas approaching, Carrie
agrees to look after her aunt's awkward and quiet teenage daughter,
Lucy, so that her mother might enjoy a romantic fling in America.
Sam
Howard is trying to pull his life back together after his wife has left
him for another. He is without home and without roots, all he has is
his job. Business takes him to northern Scotland, where he falls in love
with the lush, craggy landscape and set his sights on a house.
It
is the strange rippling effects of a tragedy that will bring these five
characters together in a large, neglected estate house near the
Scottish fishing town of Creagan.
It is in this house, on the
shortest day of the year, that the lives of five people will come
together and be forever changed. Rosamunde Pilcher's long-awaited
return to the page will warm the hearts of readers both old and new. Winter Solstice is a novel of love, loyalty and rebirth
