About the Book

Lost Love and New Love, Clouded by Misunderstandings, Sweep up Two Generations Under the Burden of an Unexpected Inheritance. Ursula H. Meier's beautifully written fourth novel reveals what happens when Chadwick Greene, a wealthy English widower, inherits a Victorian mansion in Germany's Hartz Mountains. Once the home of his first love, the bequest brings forth long suppressed memories. Chadwick plans a tranquil family vacation at his new possession, but his daughter, Fiona, has committed to film a series of culinary shows in Moscow. However, her husband, Jeffrey, joins his father-in-law. At their arrival, an unfriendly housekeeper informs the two travelers that the mansion isn't ready for occupancy. Stuck in their hotel rooms, Chadwick wrestles with the dark ghosts of his first love, while Jeffrey sees his marriage threatened when he is confronted with tabloid photos of Fiona with her co-host, Italian master chef Antonio. Then, the arrival of two women out of the men's past gives deep insight into earlier times of their lives. Chadwick's lovable butler, George, flies in from London to restore the mansion for occupancy and to reunite the family under one roof. The question is, will he also be able to restore Chadwick's equilibrium and Jeffrey's outlook on life? Ursula H. Meier's warm-hearted novel acquaints us with intriguing people who will long live in our memories.
