Following her divorce and coping with the onslaught of menopause, Mandy is just starting to build a new life for herself when a sudden death on the fell top changes everything. She revisits memories that she'd rather leave buried, and connections to another mysterious death decades before start to reveal themselves. Along the way, Mandy questions her old life and friendships and begins to form new alliances.
Set against the beauty of the Lake District, Skylark is a keenly observed story of grief, reinvention and resilience. As the seasons roll, painting a picture of life in Cumbria, we meet a variety of characters, all with their parts to play in Mandy's journey towards the life she thought she would never have.
A women's contemporary fiction - novelette.
