As a teenager, Ros McCarthy offered Mark, her baby son, up for adoption. Now, as an adult and a successful author, she wanted to reconnect. With Faye at my side, our task was to locate Mark.
Along the way we learned about Ty Gwyn, a children's home, and the people who lived and worked there. However, as we probed, some people became nervous and issued threats.
Then, unexpectedly, a murder. Was the murder and our investigation into Mark's whereabouts connected, or merely coincidence? I suspected the former, then had my doubts as the maze became more complex.
Snow in August, the story of a village and its secrets, a tale of longing and regret, and the realisation on my part that you should always cherish the people you love.
