Stoneybridge is a small town on the west coast of Ireland where all the families know each other. When Chicky Starr decides to take an old, decaying mansion set high on the cliffs overlooking the windswept Atlantic Ocean and turn it into a restful place for a holiday by the sea, everyone thinks she is crazy. Helped by Rigger (a bad boy turned good who is handy around the house) and Orla, her niece (a whiz at business), Stone House is finally ready to welcome its first guests to the big warm kitchen, log fires, and understated elegant bedrooms. Laugh and cry with this unlikely group as they share their secrets and--maybe--even see some of their dreams come true. Full of Maeve's trademark warmth and humor, once again, she embraces us with her grand storytelling.

Review:

"Delightful. . . . Radiates the warmth and charm that fans will recognize and relish." --USA Today

"A hopeful, loving novel chronicling lives shaped by good deeds, small favors, and honest counsel along the rocky crags of the Irish coast." --The Daily Beast

"A gratifying, blustery read full of rich characters, a sea-spray setting and a compelling plot that carries the reader from start to end." --Wichita Eagle

"Reading this novel is like ducking out of a cold rain into a fire-warmed pub filled with laughter." --People

"If you read this book you will feel like you know every rock and view in Stoneybridge, and will likely wish you could visit this bleak-but-mesmerizing place, perhaps even in winter. . . . If you love Binchy's quiet stories, you will not be disappointed with this one." --Huffington Post

"A restorative read." --Richmond Times-Dispatch

"Spell-binding. . . . Shows [Binchy] at the height of her powers." --IrishCentral

"All the characters spring to vivid life on the page, and all the stories are engaging." --The Irish Times

"Heartwarming and spirit restoring. . . . In classic Binchy-style, the gentle story is populated with a large cast of often eccentric, always endearing characters. . . . Stone House, a country inn on the West Coast of Ireland serves as the cozy setting for these interrelated tales of love, loss, friendship, and community. . . . Pour yourself a cup of tea, put your feet up, and prepare to savor this bit of comfort food for the soul." --Booklist

"Welcome territory for those looking for a feel-good read." --Publishers Weekly

"Classic Binchy. . . . Peek[s] into the lives of characters from various walks of life brought together at a newly opened inn on the West Coast of Ireland." --Kirkus Reviews

Book Description Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER From the acclaimed author of Circle of Friends In a small town on the west coast of Ireland, an unlikely cast of characters come together at a newly opened inn. This "delightful [novel that] radiates the warmth and charm that fans will recognize and cherish" (USA Today). Stoneybridge is a small town on the west coast of Ireland where all the families know one another. When Chicky Starr decides to take an old, decaying mansion set high on the cliffs overlooking the windswept Atlantic Ocean and turn it into a restful place for a holiday by the sea, everyone thinks she is crazy. Helped by Rigger (a bad boy turned good who is handy around the house) and Orla, her niece (a whiz at business), Chicky is finally ready to welcome the first guests to Stone Houses big warm kitchen, log fires, and understated elegant bedrooms. John, the American movie star, thinks he has arrived incognito; Winnie and Lillian are forced into taking a holiday together; Nicola and Henry, husband and wife, have been shaken by seeing too much death practicing medicine; Anders hates his fathers business, but has a real talent for music; Miss Nell Howe, a retired schoolteacher, criticizes everything and leaves a day early, much to everyones relief; the Walls are disappointed to have won this second-prize holiday in a contest where first prize was Paris; and Freda, the librarian, is afraid of her own psychic visions. Sharing a week with these characters is pure joy, full of Maeves trademark warmth and humor. Once again, she embraces us with her grand storytelling. "Originally published in Great Britain in slightly different form by Orion Books, London, in 2012"--T.p. verso. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability. Seller Inventory # 9780307475503
