    Author Rosie Schaap
    “Book Descriptions: Rosie Schaap had a solid career as a journalist, and a life that looked to others like nonstop fun: all drinking and dining and traveling to beautiful places—and getting paid to write about it. But beneath the surface she was reeling from the loss of her husband and her mother, who had died just one year apart. Caring for them had claimed much of her daily life in her late thirties. Mourning them would take longer.

    It wasn’t until a reporting trip took her to the Northern Irish countryside that Schaap found a partner to heal with: Glenarm, a quiet, seaside village in County Antrim. That first visit made such an impression that she returned to make a life. This unlikely place—in a small, tough country mainly associated with sectarian strife—gave her a measure of peace that had seemed impossible elsewhere.”
