Synopsis

As a counsellor, based in Exeter's Cathedral Green, Evie Adams ponders the extraordinary circumstances surrounding her latest clients, and the way they've impacted upon her own life. On the one hand is Phoebe, terrified that a distant relation is going to contest her deceased mother's will. On the other is Matt, seeking, with Evie's help,to solve the mystery surrounding his biological parentage - all of which raises the question again and again as to whether adoption equates to being chosen or cheated. Waiting for the higher ferry to take her across the River Dart from Dartmouth to Kingswear, Evie can't help equating it to some people's real-life experiences. Back and forth they ply, driven by an outside force; tethered to a lifestyle that inhibits freedom. Is Matt's cousin one of them, Evie wonders? Will she ever be unleashed, and thus be enabled to follow her dreams.

Media Reviews
This story, set in Devon, not only entertains, it inspires! When a good writer and great storyteller like Mel unfolds a tale that is intriguing, touching and challenging to both heart and soul, the memory of it stays in the reader's mind, often making a more lasting impression than the most thundering of sermons. Having been privy to plenty of real-life tragedies, including Mel's, in my role as a presenter of Songs of Praise, I love the way that Evie, the counsellor in the Evie Adams series, sets out to help her clients solve the obstacles before them, and to accomplish the potential in their lives.;Pam Rhodes, journalist, presenter, writer and speaker.
