Publisher's Synopsis
The Old Lady in London
A heart-tugging, unforgettable story of secrets, synchronicity, and second chances.At 79, Edith Welton is nothing more than a quiet presence on a bustling London street. To passers by, she's just an old woman with a trolley full of groceries and a past long forgotten. But behind her weathered eyes lies a life of wild turns, painful losses, and secrets buried deeper than the city's underground lines.
When a kind-hearted stranger in his early fifties helps Edith after a sudden fall, a seemingly ordinary act of kindness becomes the spark for an extraordinary friendship. Over shared cups of tea and long, winding conversations, Edith reveals stories from her wild youth, of love lost, choices made in desperation, and a mystery that never let her go.
But as their bond grows, strange coincidences begin to appear, uncanny details, mirrored emotions, and the quiet hum of fate pulling two lives back into alignment. What began as a chance encounter slowly unfolds into a stunning truth neither of them could have imagined.
And when the final revelation comes, it will leave both characters and readers, breathless.
Set against the vivid backdrop of a changing London, The Old Lady in London is an emotional page-turner that will break your heart, heal it, and linger long after the last page is turned.
