Book Description:

Harriet Turner knows all about journeys. She’s arranged hundreds of them for her family’s travel agency. Now Harriet is joining her adopted sister, Lara, to lead a group through the Cornish countryside. But when Lara fails to appear at the airport as planned, Harriet finds herself in uncharted territory and suddenly alone with a busload of eccentric seniors. As the tour wends its way through the picturesque landscape, Harriet must uncover her sister’s whereabouts and confront long-held family secrets involving Lara’s arrival twenty-five years ago . . . not to mention keeping track of more baggage –real and emotional– than she ever expected.

I really enjoyed this book. Revolving around an Australian family and their family-owned travel business, each character had their own distinctive voice and plot. A little bit of romance, a little bit of suspense...I breezed thru this one because I couldn't put it down! I am goign to make an effort to track the rest of Mcinerney's titles on PBS.

This was a wonderful book! You get to read alot about the seaside in England, and a little town in Australia. Gives some insight into what it's like to be a "foster" child to those with other children.
