The Missing Pieces of Nancy Moon
"The Missing Pieces of Nancy Moon is really special. It's the Dear Mrs. Bird or the Eleanor Oliphant of its time. Such a book!" —Katie Fforde
Begin a journey in the footsteps of the mysterious Nancy Moon, and piece together the secrets of one extraordinary long-lost summer...


To unravel the story of that long-lost summer, she had to follow the thread...


Florence Connelly is broken-hearted; her beloved grandmother has just died and her marriage has collapsed.


But things change when she opens a box of vintage 1960s dress patterns, discovered inside her grandmother's wardrobe. Inside each pattern packet is a fabric swatch, a postcard from Europe and a faded photograph of a young woman wearing the hand-made dress. Why did Flo's grandmother never speak of this mysterious woman—Nancy Moon?


Her life in tatters, Flo decides to remake Nancy's dresses and to head across to the Continent to re-create Nancy's Grand Tour of 1962. As she follows the thread, Flo begins to unravel an untold story of love and loss in her family's past. And perhaps to stitch the pieces of her own life back together...
