À propos de cet audio
From the internationally bestselling author of Calling Major Tom
For elderly churchwarden Arthur Calderbank, there's no place like home. His home just so happens to be a graveyard.
He keeps himself to himself, gets on with his job, and visits his wife everyday for a chat. When one day he finds someone else has been to see his wife - and has left flowers on her grave - he is determined to solve the mystery of who and why. He receives unlikely help from a group of teenage girls determined to break out of the poverty trap by emulating their Britpop heroes and forming a band, and as Arthur and the girls try to find answers, he soon learns that there is more to life than being surrounded by death.
Set when we were all common people and things could only get better, this is an uplifting story about the power of a little kindness, friendship and community, for readers who enjoy Sue Townsend, Ruth Hogan and Joanna Cannon.

An absolute delight
A wonderful story on so many levels. Great characters and I liked the way the recollections of the past were revealed. Didn’t want this one to end. I thought the narrator did a good job, even with the female voices. He didn’t make them high and squeaky as some male narrators do, which I appreciated.
