The Importance of Being Myrtle
0 - Default Title
Description
When Myrtle's husband Austin dies on the bus one morning everything seems to freeze. But in reality Myrtle has been frozen for nearly forty years locked into an emotionless marriage. So if the barriers have been lifted why does she still feel trapped?
Her daughters are a mystery to her - one prickly and defensive the other with a closely guarded secret. And thanks to Austin's cold presence friends are a rarity. How is a widow supposed to find herself when she's alone and unconfident of her place in the world?
But hope might rest with Gianni the kind stranger in whose arms Austin died. And when nosy neighbour Dorothy discovers Myrtle's sad news she also refuses to let her wallow. But Myrtle will never move on until she's dealt with her past and the reason for her devotion to Austin. The truth must out even though the consequences might prove devastating for Myrtle and her daughters ...
