22 Short stories, with very different settings: some in her native Scotland, some in Malaysia where she lived for a few years and others from North America where she has grandchildren. Some of her Scottish stories have a historical context, but most of the stories were prompted by some incident or encounter which left her wondering what might have led up to it, or what might follow. The stories are often deeply touching, but her gentle sense of humour prevents them becoming sentimental. The varied geographical and cultural settings add a richness to the collection.
