Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Fry

"An exciting new debut. Since his retirement, Harold Fry has done nothing but mow the lawn, and infuriate his wife by filling in the easy answers on her Telegraph crossword. Then an unexpected letter arrives from a woman he hasn't seen in twenty years who's dying of cancer. Harold realises that sending a reply isn't good enough. He is going to walk; all the way through England to Scotland. So long as he keeps walking, his friend Queenie will keep living. The journey will prove life-changing for him, the wife he leaves behind, and those he meets along the way."
