Their lives were a tapestry woven together by love and
loss, tragedy and hope. On the windswept coast of Nova
Scotia, Lily and her eight-year-old daughter, Rose, are
struggling to embrace a new life even as Lily tries to let
go of painful memories of the past. Among the lives that
will touch theirs are those of Liam Neill, a dedicated
teacher living in self-imposed isolation; Maeve Jameson,
mourning the loss of a granddaughter she devoted her life
to protecting; and Mark Murphy, a dogged police detective
obsessed with a woman who vanished years ago–who may or
may not have found what he seeks in a tiny, out-of-the-way
maritime village.
During this eventful summer of roses, the paths–and fates–
of these unforgettable characters will intersect in ways
that none of them could ever expect–and shape a future
none of them could possibly foresee. For each of them it
will be a time of renewal and transformation that will
circle inevitably to a past left behind, a mystery
unsolved, and a love reclaimed. Summer of Roses is vintage
Luanne Rice–a novel that celebrates the ties of family,
the passion of lovers, and the deep, unbreakable bonds
that hold us together through all the seasons of our lives.
