At Last
Wealthy ex-businesswoman, Katherine Crawford, has lived alone for 30 years following the death of her young daughter, Amy. As her life advances into old age, she immerses herself in memories of Amy and thinks increasingly about her own mortality. She has a growing fear that everything ends with death and desperately seeks a reason to believe that she will be reunited with Amy in an afterlife. As her final years unfold, the lives of others intertwine and come together in surprising ways, both by design and by chance. Within the twists and turns of the story line, the impact of love in relationships has great significance as does the creation of new life, in one case deliberately and, in the other, accidentally. A novel with a strong sense of place, the setting of a Greek island plays a key part in the story. It is an awe-inspiring place where connection to the natural world and a sense of transcendental possibilities feel very powerful.
At Last
At Last is about life after death. About the compromising effects of grief but also about how legacy can have a transformative impact on the lives of others.
