Margaret thinks her time is up…

Things have been hard since her husband Derek died, and they never really got over the disappearance of their daughter, Jeanie, all those years ago.
Despite everything, they built a lovely life together… it’s just starting to feel impossible for Margaret on her own.

But maybe her time is now?

Then one day, Margaret returns home to an unlikely visi­tor, and together they set out to discover what really hap­pened to Jeanie.
Perhaps if you knock on enough doors, you might find another end to your story…

‘A warm and kind novel that shows the beauty in ordinary life’ GEORGINA MOOREBrimming with Jos trademark compassion, insight and wry humour, An Unlikely Visitor is both a meditation on a grief, a mystery of a missing child and a powerful exploration of the human condition. Jo writes so beautifully about human frailties and her kindness illuminates every sentence. A treat of a novel HANNAH BECKERMAN
A novel that appears to be telling Margaret and Derek’s poignant story becomes, in Joanna Cannon’s gifted hands, a profound reflection on the human condition, and therein lie the joy and the magic… We are left marvelling at how extraordinary ordinary people can be, and what a wonder it is to live and love at all JOANNA GLEN
A richly imagined, deeply soothing and impeccably structured story, told with Joanna Cannons trademark wit and warmth. A balm for the soul SAMUEL BURR
