People like Annelise Winther, who refuses to sell her long-gone mother's beloved necklace -- despite Tess's advice. To Annelise, the jewel's value is in its memories.But Tess's own history is filled with gaps: a father she never met, a mother who spent more time traveling than with her daughter.

About the Author
I like to believe I am the person my dogs think I am. I phone my parents every day, as they are elderly and adorable, and they read me stories every day of my freakishly normal childhood. I was a writer before I learned to read, by creating scribbles on paper and dictating the stories to my saintly mother. You can see examples here: https://plus.google.com/u/1/photos/104585203815605467940/albums/5587379107269629729? banner=pwa&partnerid=pwrd1.Untold eons later, I still read and write everyday and I've gotten very good at it. I live in a ridiculously gorgeous place in the world--an island in Puget Sound, Washington where we have a lot of the same flowers you grow in the UK. But bigger slugs. Much bigger slugs. I have lots more to tell you, so please join me on Facebook and check out pictures of my dogs and tell me what's on your mind. https://www.facebook.com/susanwiggs
