The list he left had just one item on it. Or, at least, it did at first Mabel Beaumonts husband Arthur loved lists. Hed leave them for her everywhere. Remember: eggs, butter, sugar. I love you: today, tomorrow, always. But now Arthur is gone. He died: softly, gently, not making a fuss. But hes still left her a list. This one has just one item on it though: Find D. Mabel feels sure she knows what it means. She must track down her best friend Dot, who she hasnt seen since the fateful day she left more than sixty years ago. It seems impossible. She doesnt even know if Dots still alive. Also, every person Mabel talks to seems to need help first, with missing husbands, daughters, parents. Mabel finds her list is just getting longer, and shes still no closer to finding Dot. What she doesnt know is that her list isnt just about finding her old friend. And that if she can admit the secrets of the past, maybe she could even find happiness again A completely heartbreaking, beautiful, uplifting story, guaranteed to make you smile but also make you cry. Perfect for fans of My Name is Ove, Eleanor Oliphant is Completely Fine, and The Keeper of Stories.
