Mary Moody’s best-selling memoirs about her adventures in France, Au Revoir and Last Tango in Toulouse, inspired thousands of women. The Accidental Tour Guide completes the circle by sharing another major turning point in her life. When Mary loses her beloved husband, her world is turned upside down. Part of her journey to reignite her passion for living is to boldly go where she has never been before - in her travels and in her everyday life. A powerful, moving, and inspiring true story about how to rebuild your life without the people who matter most.

In Au Revoir she ran away. In Last Tango her world turned upside down. Now, her relationships are about to reach boiling point. In the European summer of 2003 a deadly heat wave strikes France. To Mary Moody, living in her rural village in the south-west of France, it seems that the weather is merely imitating the stifling heat of her marriage, which is on the verge of collapse following the events recounted in Last Tango in Toulouse.

Thomas C. Waterlee seems to have finished his duties in life. He had a Nobel prize in physics and lived quietly and happily alone. But still, a memory; a small reminder of his younger years yanked on his conscious. It brought back his old pain which he then took to his psychiatrist, Sandra, who had always been there for Tom - but once Tom had gotten part of the memory out of his fogged brain, he snaps. In an attempt to rid of the memory, Tom gets into his bathtub and refuses to leave it.
