Guiding Star

The new novel from this well-loved author. After her husband is killed in a car accident that has left her severely disabled, Shelley returns to her parents' farm in the Scottish Highlands with her small son Dannie. For Greg and Sheina MacLeod it is a mixed blessing: Shelley is desperately unhappy and struggling to come to terms with the fact that she is unlikely to walk again; six-year-old Dannie, meanwhile, is confused, angry, and increasingly difficult to control. Then a stray Golden Retriever enters their lives, to be named Star. Apparently abandoned to the wild, it becomes apparent that Star must once have been a much-loved pet, for she displays unusual talents. Soon she has forged a remarkable bond with Shelley and her small son, and the future looks more hopeful...Stranger, Joyce is the author of 'Guiding Star ', published 2007 under ISBN 9780727875617 and ISBN 0727875612.
