The events described in this book took place during that strange week that May, a resident of a small Irish town, will never forget. Mae is great with garden plants, but feels lost when she needs to interact with new people. A series of accidents leads to the fact that she must clean up the garden belonging to a man whom she has never met, but, having examined the tools on his property, was convinced that he is a talented wood carver. At the same time, she finds herself foolishly and recklessly falling in love with the local postman, whose name she doesn’t even know, and incidents begin to occur in the city that would be suitable for filming a detective series.
