This is the moving story of Adella, who moves to Jamaica where life seems to promise so much—a respectable career and the chance of professional status as a seamstress. Adella falls in love with Stanton, whom she eventually follows to England—and who then deserts her. Now a grandmother, Adella waits for her husband to return, haunted by memories and assessing what has been achieved over the years.
