Linda Cole lost her husband three years ago and survived the way she survives everything: by managing.
Then her daughter calls from Tokyo. She's been there for three weeks without telling anyone. She's found the grandmother no one knew, fallen in love with a quiet craftsman next door, and plans to marry him.
Linda boards a plane determined to stop a mistake.
What she finds instead is a neighborhood that doesn't hurry, a grandmother's diary that rewrites her family's history, and a reserved British literature professor behind a blue gate who looks at her as though she's a sentence he's been trying to finish for a very long time.
Linda didn't come to Japan looking for love. Tokyo doesn't care what she came for.
いってきます - I'm going, but I'm coming back.
Perfect for readers who love:
- Second-chance romance
- Slow-burn emotional tension
