The return journey / Maeve Binchy.
Maeve Binchy brings us sons and lovers, daughters and strangers, husbands and wives in their infinite variety--powerfully compelling stories of love, loss, revelation, and reconciliation. A secretary's silent passion for her boss meets the acid test on a business trip ... A man and a woman's mutual disdain at first sight shows how deceptive appearances can be ... An insecure wife clings to the illusion of order, only to discover chaos at the hands of a house sitter who opens the wrong doors ... A pair of star-crossed travelers take each other's bags, and then learn that when you unlock a stranger's suitcase, you enter a stranger's life. In their company are many more, whose poignant, ironic, often humorous stories--unforgettable slices of life--make up The Return Journey, a spellbinding trip into the human heart.
