Dancing in a Distant Place by Isla Dewar


Iris Chisholm arrives in the Scottish Highland community of Green Cairns hoping to recover from the shock of her husband's death and the news he has left her penniless, and soon finds herself distracted by the students at her small school and the two men vying for her attention.


A very quiet, slow-moving story of a woman who discovers secrets after her husband dies. When she has to live with the consequences of his actions, it disrupts the fabric of family that is left. The book cover is lovely and made me pick up the book. Some adult book have teen appeal, even though this one has teenage characters, it probably won't have much teen appeal.
