By Your Side

di Jones Ruth (Autore)

Transworld Digital, 2025

The joyful, life-affirming novel and perfect summer read from the Gavin and Stacey co-creator and Sunday Times bestselling author of Richard and Judy Book Club Pick, Love Untold. 'A heartwarming and funny read from the brilliant Ruth Jones' Heat (Book of the Week) 'Brilliantly told, you'll laugh, cry - and love it' Woman & Home After thirty-three years helping strangers at the council’s Unclaimed Heirs Unit, Linda is looking forward to early retirement. But first, one last case: tracking down the relatives of the deceased Levi Norman, a Welshman who spent his final years on a remote Scottish island. As Linda delves into Levi’s past, aided (and occasionally thwarted) by the residents of Storrich, she uncovers more than just his story. Bursting with heart and humour, By Your Side is about finding joy in the most unlikely connections, and the importance of holding on to friendship, love and community – especially when life gets messy.
