Margot has gifted herself with a vacation to Corsica-the fulfillment of a promise made to herself long ago. And she must admit she's enjoying the solitude that traveling alone brings, even if the indulgence prompts a guilty twinge or two.Exploring Corsica's shoreline, museums, and churches, Margot finds herself reflecting on her life and her mortality. Her daughters are grown, and her marriage at this point is best described as comfortable. As she looks back on her past through a series of revealing flashbacks, Margot realizes she's come to a pivotal moment in time.A delicate unfolding of one woman's life, Margot is like the sea surrounding Corsica: beautiful, seductive, and capable of dragging the reader into unexpected depths. Author Lisa De Castro brings both Margot and Corsica to vibrant life, seamlessly blending evocative descriptions of Corsica's weathered, ancient landscapes with Margot's bittersweet memories-and her possible future.
