About this listen
She’s not lost. She’s just waiting to be found…
‘Completely beguiling – a messy, loveable cast of characters with Dawn at the centre, bringing the light. A truly lovely read’
Beth Morrey, Sunday Times bestselling author of Saving Missy
Dawn Elisabeth Brightside has been running from her past for twenty-two years and two months, precisely.
So when she is offered a bed in St Jude’s Hostel for the Homeless, it means so much more than just a roof over her head.
But with St Jude’s threatened with closure, Dawn worries that everything is about to crumble around her all over again.
Perhaps, with a little help from her new friends, she can find a way to save this light in the darkness?
And maybe, just maybe, Dawn will finally have a place to call home….
The utterly charming feel-good debut novel of summer 2021 to curl up with.

Lovely story and wonderful narration
Joan Walker does it again bringing another story to life. She has such a lovely calming voice and her tone is always easy to listen too even when using voices. This story was uplifting and enjoyable because you can see how realistic the circumstances of the story are. It serves as a wonderful reminder to be kind and reach out
