September by Pilcher, Rosamunde (2005)

by pilcher • 1990

Rosamunde Pilcher's Scotland ...where the fields flourish with greenery, the hills bloom with purple, and the lochs glitter with the bright blue of the sky. September...when the heather is in full flower, the first chill of autumn cools the air, and the countryside stirs with hunt balls, dinner parties, and dance. Rosamunde Pilcher's September. . . a story of homecomings and heartbreaks, friendships, betrayals, forgiveness and love. From an amazon review: At the heart of "September" is Noel Keeling, a man sorely self-absorbed and with a life in disarray after a bitter fight with his mother and her subsequent death in "The Shell Seekers." Noel is drawn into the life of London caterer Alexa Aird, whose family and their good friends, the Balmerinos, are the pivotal families in this rich tale of love, betrayal, loss, despair, and redemption on the moors of Scotland.
