Footprints in the Sand
Author(s): Sarah Challis
When Emily Kingsley attends her Great Aunt Mary's funeral, she has no idea that her life is about to change completely. Still grieving for her broken relationship with the vain, and unfaithful Ted, and trying to come to terms with the cracks appearing in her parents' marriage, she sobs her heart out in the church. At the wake afterwards she and her cousin Clemmie are told that Mary has appointed them executors of part of her Will. They are to transport her ashes to Mali, to her final resting place, Timadjlalen, in the Saharan desert. And so begins Emily and Clemmie's adventure -- a journey that will be the most important of their lives. Longlisted for the 2007 Romantic Novel of the Year, this is a very enjoyable read.
