About this book
To save his street, Brian Hale must let the neighbours repay forty-one years of favours, one hour at a time.
When a dissolution clause turns a housing estate’s old labour-exchange ledger into voting shares, grieving widower Brian Hale must do what he has avoided for decades: ask his neighbours to return every kindness recorded there. Each favour redeemed may protect the homes around him and preserve the pages written by his late wife. Margaret Ellery fuses a hopeful story of grief and connection with a property battle in which warm memories carry legal weight.
