Deirdre and Sam, mother and daughter, have been stuck in individual grief cycles since husband and father Niall died less than a year earlier. Now it is time for a change. For Deirdre, this means hiring a life coach, rediscovering long-dormant parts of herself, and putting the family home on the market. For Sam, it's jettisoning an abusive employer, re-evaluating her strengths, allowing for the possibility of love, and maybe even moving home for a while. They come to their decisions an ocean apart, but when they find themselves under the same roof, their missions begin to take flight. But progress is never linear . . . and heartache isn't entirely done with them yet.
At once a deeply felt story of two people not just ready to move on and an inspirational call for finding oneself, Let it Shine is a profound, touching, and ultimately stirring work of fiction.
