An artist emerges phoenix-like from the ashes of a criminal past; a couple seek the spirit of their son and the ghost of Mendelssohn high up in the alpine plains; a man learns to free himself from his own misery and return home. From the explosive end of a pier to the promise of reconciliation and redemption after life on the streets, life, death and rebirth are explored with depth and humour in this ten-story collection. Often touching, frequently inspiring, always bearing a gentle breed of pedagogic wisdom, this volume presents Peter Dawson's first fictional offerings.
