Produktbeschreibung

For reasons they can't quite explain, the lost always find themselves on Shinbone Lane...

San Francisco, 1974. Sixteen-year-old runaway Maddy is escaping the blame for a crime she didn't commit. Miles from home, she is taken under the wing of the elderly Clara and her neighbor Ted. She soon finds a place among the kaleidoscope of personalities on the oddly named Shinbone Lane.

Ted's three-story Italianate Victorian house overflows with travelers, free spirits, and artists. A hybrid pigeon of ancient lineage roosts in the backyard - a playground for all who are willing to see its magic. But burdened dancer Eloise Watkins would rather there were less "riff raff" in her neighborhood. Such frivolity flies in the face of the friendship she's lost and the daughter who left her. And nobody - nobody - understands.

But like all who tread on it, Shinbone Lane has secrets of its own. And, like all secrets, they lie uneasily in the dark, until the truth emerges to lay the past to rest.

At the intersection of magic and reality lies Shinbone Lane and its lively cast of characters who intertwine in the tantalizing mess of life.

Autorenporträt

Laura McHale Holland's love affair with the San Francisco Bay Area began in the 1970s, when the world felt awhirl with creativity, discovery, and travel. These days Laura lives fifty miles north of SF in Sonoma County, where she enjoys stretching reality at her keyboard with a pot of strong black tea nearby. An award-winning author and accomplished editor, she loves to babysit her two granddaughters, prank her sisters, and watch film noir with her husband. When she's not walking or attempting to train their Löwchen dog, Tucker, Laura is a determined gardener. Though by her count, about half of their plants are struggling under her watch.
