'Moving, hopeful and heartfelt... an ideal book group read' AJ Pearce, author of Dear Mrs Bird

A gripping and heartfelt story about overcoming the past and finding where you belong.
 
Anna Wilson travels the world as a professional housesitter ndash; stepping into other peoplensquo;s lives - caring for their homes, pets and sometimes even neighbours. Living vicariously.
 
But all Anna has ever really wanted is a home of her own idash; a proper one, filled with family and love and happy memories. If only she knew where to start.
 
Growing up in foster care, she always envied her friends their secure and carefree lives, their certainty and confidence. And, while those same friends may have become her family of choice, Anna is still stuck in that nomadic cycle, looking for answers, trying to find the courage to put down roots and find a place to call home.

Compelling, rich and evocative, Home is Annarsquo;s journey to discovering that it isnesquo;t where you settle down that matters, but the people you have around you when you do.
