The Last Word

By Emma Burns

Ceci Finnegan left home two years ago to research her famous author ancestor's mysterious novel, The Last Word. She returns home half starved and exhausted, only to find that the aunt who raised her is seriously ill and their ancestral home, Oriel, is under threat of demolition. Ceci must overcome the traumas of her past that drove her away and reconnect with her friends and old boyfriend in order to solve the mystery that threatens Oriel, Aunt Adelaide, and the town itself. In the process, Ceci solves the riddle of The Last Word, finds out about her own past, and finds the kind of happiness that might just stop her from running away forever.
