Shrugging off her khaki jacket, Amy bent to pick up the pile of post that lay waiting on her doormat. As her hand reached to retrieve the small brown package half-buried beneath some junk mail, Amy froze. She knew that handwriting. She also had a funny feeling that she knew what was going to be inside.

Fifteen years ago Amy Crane was a shy but happy-go-lucky archaeology student.
Fourteen years ago Amy met Jack.
Thirteen years ago Amy ran away. 600 miles away. From England to Scotland.
Now, spurred on by an unexpected arrival in the post, Amy realises she doesn’t want to hide any more.
Fed up with her job, missing her university friends, and disappointed in her own feeble behaviour, Amy finds the courage to face the ghost of her past and forge a future.
Armed with her mantra, New Life, new job, new home- which she repeats to herself over and over again, Amy Crane leaves her job, leaves her rented flat, and with more courage than she’s shown in years, heads south…
