Maureen Fry and the Angel of the North
by Rachel Joyce
Ten years ago, Harold Fry set off on his journey on foot to save a friend. Now his wife, Maureen, has her own pilgrimage to make.
Maureen Fry has settled into the quiet life she shares with her husband Harold after his walk across England. Now, ten years later, an unexpected message from the North disturbs her equilibrium again, and this time it is Maureen's turn to make her own journey.
But Maureen is not like Harold. She struggles to bond with strangers, and the landscape she crosses has changed radically. She has little sense of what she'll find at the end of the road. All she knows is that she must get there.
Maureen Fry and the Angel of the North is a novel about love, loss, and how we come to terms with the past in order to understand ourselves and our lives a little better. While it stands in its own right, it is also the finale to a trilogy that began with The Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Fry and continued with The Love Song of Miss Queenie Hennessy.
