Publisher's Summary

What if going back was the only way of going forward?

Rocked by a terrible accident, homeless Kelly needs to escape the cold streets of Glasgow. Maybe she doesn’t believe in serendipity, but a rare moment of kindness and a lost ring conspire to call her home. As Kelly vows to reunite the ring with its owner, she must return to the small town she fled so many years ago.

On her journey from Glasgow to the south-west tip of Scotland, Kelly encounters ancient pilgrim routes, hostile humans, hippies, book lovers and a friendly dog, as memories stir and the people she thought she’d left behind for ever move closer with every step.

I’ll be thinking on this one for a bit

Very very well written. Narration was awesome. Cringey and heartwarming and frustrating. All the feelings. You are your worst enemy, but you can also be your best champion. I loved it. Hope and life change can come in so many different ways. I highly recommend. Having people in your corner even when you push them away again and again

Gritty and Touching

I started listening a couple of times fearing it would be too disheartening- it’s not. It’s about keeping on keeping on. Well worth a read or listen

Just…Wow. Best book I have read in ages. Highly recommend.

I couldn’t write a review better than many which have already been written. The story pulls you along. It is written with such compassion and understanding. It made me laugh and made me cry. Exquisitely written.

Superb listen. Beautifully narrated.

My first Campbell book since seeing her at wigtown book festival. But I was hooked from the first pages. Beautifully and lyrically written on a very challenging topic.
