about this book: Ruth thought that her aunt had died many years before. When she gets a letter from her it is an unnerving surprise. The elegant old lady, who she visits in hospital, advises that Ruth is to be the recipient of her legacy. Ruth receives a crate of mementos from her Aunt Loretta and as she looks at each item she learns about her unusual and glamorous life.

The revelations about Loretta make Ruth think about her own circumstances and begin to make long overdue changes. She was divorced five years before and has been plagued with inertia ever since. Will she take her aunt's advice to travel whenever she gets the opportunity? Her fear of going abroad on a solo trip will have to be conquered.

Ruth's adult children and her charming ex husband Andrew all play a role in moving her life forward. Unresolved issues are addressed and tough decisions are made. The legacy proves to be a catalyst for a new start.
