In the spring of 1958, Jenny Winter embarks on a two-month adventure to one of the most enchanting places on earth, a quaint village in England’s magical Lake District. With a new camera and an eye for capturing the beauty others miss, she can’t wait to explore the heathery fells and mystical waters. Adrian Kemp, a handsome and enigmatic local, makes the sightseeing even more beguiling—and he’s about to invite Jenny into one of the area’s most enduring legends.
When Adrian shows Jenny his late father’s abandoned dream, a deserted island amusement park, she glimpses a kindred spirit in this reckless, haunted young man. Yet as she opens her heart to Adrian, the two stumble into a labyrinth of mystery leading back a generation to an unforgettable romance and an unsolved murder that still casts a shadow over the lakes. As long-held secrets come to light, it’s left to Jenny and Adrian to put the past to rest and restore a lost dream.

What do you like about this book:
"You have an extraordinary ability to see things that other people miss . . "
Jenny Winter has "flown the coop"; figuratively and literally. Before she marries someone she doesn't love and settles into a life that she doesn't want to live, her mother gifts her with a trip from Cleveland, Ohio to England's legendary Lake District, where the distant past holds exquisite possibilities for the future, if one has the eyes to see them. When she meets a handsome young local, she has no idea how enchanting one deserted island amusement park can become, even amidst the swirling dark secrets that time has protected.
Join Jenny and Adrian's carousel of second chances; soaring to new heights in order to gain a better understanding of God's immutable capacity to make all things new. What a creative story!
