Unable to let go of her grief, she finds comfort in her faithful canine companion Haizum, and peace in the quiet lanes of her town's lido.  Then a chance encounter with two extraordinary women - the fabulous and wise Kitty Muriel, a convent girl turned magician's wife turned seventy-something roller disco fanatic, and the mysterious Sally Red Shoes, a bag lady with a prodigious voice - opens up a new world of possibilities, and the chance to start living again. But just as Masha dares to imagine the future, her past comes roaring back ... Like her bestselling debut, The Keeper of Lost Things, Ruth Hogan's second novel introduces a cast of wonderful characters, both ordinary and charmingly eccentric, who lead us through a moving exploration of the joy of friendship and the simple human connections that make life worth living. \nTidy condition minor marks on the cover marks on the front fly page.","brand":"Two Roads","offers":[{"title":"Good \/ 75af14391b8","offer_id":48068101603479,"sku":"9781473669000-GD-000130001","price":8.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0741\/9002\/8951\/files\/18827523482712.jpg?v=1785060172","url":"https:\/\/thriftreads.co.nz\/products\/the-wisdom-of-sally-red-shoes","provider":"Thrift Reads","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
