| book description |

Silence tore them apart. Can the truth bring them back together? ""Marvellousâ€ â€”Lesley Pearse ""A hauntingly beautiful novel"" â€”Imogen Clark ""Gripping, heart rending and extremely satisfyingâ€ â€”Katie Fforde In 1960s Glasgow, anti-nuclear activists Judith and Jimmy fall in love. But their future hopes are dashed when their protestorsâ€™ squat is raided and many, including Jimmy, are sent to prison. Pregnant and with no word from Jimmy, Judith is forced to enter an unmarried mothersâ€™ home, give up their baby and learn to live with her grief. More than half a century later, Judithâ€™s Mending Shop restores broken treasures, just as Judith herself has been bound back together by her late, much-missed partner, Catherine. But her tranquillity is shattered when Jimmyâ€”so different and yet somehow the sameâ€”reappears, yearning to unpick the painful past. Realising they each know only half of the otherâ€™s story, Jimmy and Judith finally break the silence that tore apart what might have been their family. Amid heartbreak and hope, how much can now be mended?
