Summer's child

Rice, Luanne. (Author).

Summary: There's a place in our hearts reserved for miracles ... On the first day of summer, Mara Jameson went out to water her garden -- and was never seen again. Years after her disappearance, no one could forget the expectant mother whose glowing smile had captured the heart of everyone who'd known her: Maeve Jameson, still mourning the loss of a granddaughter she had struggled to protect ... Patrick Murphy, a dogged police detective obsessed with a vanished woman ... and Lily Malone, drawn to the rugged beauty of the Nova Scotia coast and its promise of a new life. Here Lily hopes to raise her nine-year-old daughter, Rose, far from the pain and loss of the past. Here she will meet a gifted scientist, Liam Neill, whose life is on a similar trajectory from heartbreak to hope. And before the season is over, Lily will find the magic that exists in people we love the best ... the everyday miracles that can make the extraordinary happen anywhere.
