Whitethorn Woods

English

By (author): Maeve Binchy

'A touching, funny, optimistic book full of wonderful, well observed characters' Daily Mail

'Maeve Binchy at her best' Choice

Everything is changing in small Irish town of Rossmore - and when a new road threatens to cut through Whitethorn Woods, everyone has a passionate opinion about whether the town will benefit or suffer.
