Rating: - Great, quick read
If you love Maeve Binchy, you will love this book. The bad thing is that it is very short (an evening or less). The good thing is that it's quintessential Binchy. Everything you've loved about any of her other books you will love about this one. Highly recommended!!!
Rating: - It's a short ( very short ) story
The story is fine, but as has been mentioned, 87 pages, and those 87 pages are printed in a very large font.

It appears that this was one of several short stories in an anthology, but is being sold separately for the Kindle.
