Since she was a child, Elizabeth had possessed a rare gift of communicating with the dead, and sometimes helping them with their unfinished business. This was the case with Paolo Clemente; a kind man she met on a streetcar. Elizabeth held the man’s head in her lap as he passed from life to his other existence, but he was not at rest. Something was left undone. He wanted her to take him home to his family.
Paolo’s son Giovanni loved the vineyard. It was the only thing of his missing father he had, but Giovanni was also bitter when it came to his father. Despite what his mother thought, Giovanni believed his father had deserted them. Paolo’s spirit followed Elizabeth to the vineyard, hoping she could create peace in Giovanni’s heart. Even though his family members welcomed her visit, Giovanni was distrusting. Would Elizabeth succeed in bringing Paolo’s love to his family and heal Giovanni’s bitterness or would she fail her mission? Find out in this delightful novel by Joie Lesin.
I really enjoyed this book, with its interesting plot, humor and an unusual storyline. I was very impressed with the way it all came together.
Armchair Interviews says: Bringing love from the “other side” makes for a good story.
