Felicia is unmarried, pregnant, and penniless. She steals away from a small Irish town and drifts through the industrial English Midlands, searching for the boyfriend who left her. Instead she meets up with Mr. Hilditch, who is looking for a new friend to join the five other girls in his Memory Lane. But strange, sad, terrifying tricks of chance unravel both his and Felicia's delusions in a story that will magnetize fans of Alfred Hitchcock and Ruth Rendell, even as it resonates with William Trevor's own "impeccable strength and piercing profundity" (The Washington Post Book World).

Like the few other Trevor's stories I have read this one is also sad. Yet it is beautiful and attractive. After reading Trevor you would feel life is still beautiful and worth living when things are bad just because your life can well be a Trevor story.
