Publisher's Synopsis
I wish you happy reading.
Excerp from the book...
What happened had to happen. She spent a long time blaming herself for everything. 'It's not my fault, ' it burst out of her, and further 'I am not responsible for everyone I met, nor for what they do. Everyone has their responsibility for themselves and their children.' She looked around and saw some parallels between the human movements that converge and move away from each other. Crossroads are created because many people pass each other and leave a trace. When we all traces, would cover a huge area, it would be seen on a smaller scale, like a map, crossing in different places. Since there are so many crossings and encounters. 'I dream or is it true, ' sometimes it seems to her, it works then so unreal even if though she is in 'The Here and Now.'
When she got to the airport, she got out of the taxi. She paid by credit card and while waiting for the receipt, she fished a 5 pound note out of her pocket. She took the receipt and at the same time gave the taxi driver the 5-pound note. He looked at it, with an expression on his face that oscillated between amazement, gratitude, and a long-forgotten memory. Then he stared at her with his mouth open and after a short time when he apparently came to, he thanked her, he looked at the note repeatedly and said, 'God bless you.' It was the 5 pounds that she had received days before at the post office that had a message in it that read, 'God is so good' and on the other side it said, 'Jesus is Lord.' She knew she had to pass this note on now on this occasion. It was a nice memory for her to have done something good. Now there was no money in her pocket, without a plane ticket. Stranded. What would she do?
Now that he was in front of her nose, a sweet apple smell rose. It reminded her of something she had long forgotten. It was the smell of home. This is how it always smelled at grandma, she will never forget that. Her grandma could bake the best apple pie in the world and she has already eaten a few and never tasted this local smell anywhere. 'It smells like grandma´s, ' she shot out. Mary smiled and said, 'It is also their recipe. Just like she had taught me. Do you remember what the secret ingredient was?.' Bella had to smile and said, 'Yes I know, ' both said in unisound, 'Love' and immediately had to laugh.
She read her last note 7 sisters, southern England. She took her phone and read what she was with her chalk cliff landscape. Between Seaford and Eastbourne. She felt inside that her mum was the key to all the unusual dreams she had to wait. She opened the photo album with the church. She took a closer look and discovered inside. The window, and the gable beams that formed the background. In the foreground stood some people who were holding a small child in old-fashioned christening clothes. This picture must be very old, she thought to herself, she didn't recognize the people in it and she didn't feel any reference to it either.
The letter had been waiting for me all my life. Or did it mean another Mary? I put it away but my curiosity was greater. There was no one left to ask. I struggled with myself, I didn't eat anything that day and thought. Like the angel and the devil in me my fluctuations went, do it, no don't do it. That night was by far the hardest and shortest. Anyway, after breakfast, I decided to open the letter. I couldn't eat anything because of excitement. So I took courage and went upstairs opened the cupboard in mother's room and took the letter at me. I opened it my heart was pounding. I read. Dear Mary..
Please come back and take a seat. As you probably know, I'm Lizzy's younger sister and Marys daughter. I would like to ring in a new era today, that of 'The belonging'. You have known these people for a long time and the title should be renewed, above all for the reason that they are connected to..
Seasons Greetings and happy reading... Izabela Monika Zoeller
