Author:Danielle Steel
Someday is Brigitte Nicholson's watchword. Someday she and the man she loves, Ted, will clarify their relationship. Someday she'll have children. Someday she'll finish writing her book. Someday she'll stop playing it so safe...
Then something happens that changes Brigitte's life completely.
Struggling to plot a new course, Brigitte agrees to help her mother on a genealogy project - and makes a fascinating discovery that reaches back to the French aristocracy. Brigitte decides to travel to South Dakota and Paris to follow the path of her ancestor. And as she begins to solve the puzzle of this exceptional young woman who lived so long ago, her quiet life becomes an adventure of its own.
A chance meeting and a new opportunity put Brigitte back at the heart of her own story. And with family legacy coming to life around her, someday is no longer in the future. Instead, someday is now.
[A]n intimate soul-searching, by turns painful and savagely funny
—— Dominic Cavendish , IndependentHe is a master of minor tragedies and melancholy, self-mocking humour... It is a beautiful, poignant and wry piece of writing.

—— Maggie O'Farrel , IndependentMelancholy yet achingly funny
—— ObserverLike all first-class comedians, he is deadly serious
—— Terry Eagleton , Stand'Heaven to read, and you'll laugh like hell'
—— Time Out'Not quite as sinister as the authors' photo'
—— The Times'Hilarious Pratchett magic tempered by Neil Gaiman's dark steely style; who could ask for a better combination?'
—— Fear'Good Omens is frequently hilarious, littered with funny footnotes and eccentric characters. It's also humane, intelligent, suspenseful, and fully equipped with a chorus of "Tibetans, Aliens, Americans, Atlanteans and other rare and strange creatures of the Last Days." If the end is near, Pratchett and Gaiman will take us there in style'
—— LocusMurakami's exquisitely simple prose and deft evocation of the surreal are captivating and sublime

—— Los Angeles Times Book Review[A] treat...Murakami captures the heartbeat of his generation and draws the reader in so completely you mourn when the story is done
—— Baltimore SunMurakami's most famous coming of age novel of love, loss and longing

—— The Baltimore SunOne of the most poignant and evocative novels I have ever read
—— PalantinatePoignant, romantic and hopeless, it beautifully encapsulates heartbreak and loss of faith
