Publisher's summary

The wise, witty and wine-filled follow-up to Two Steps Forward, Graeme Simsion and Anne Buist’s best-selling novel about walking the Camino.

Three years after life got in the way of their long-distance relationship, Californian illustrator Zoe and English engineer Martin have an unexpected opportunity to reunite: a second chance to follow in the footsteps of pilgrims in Europe.

This time, they won’t be walking the famous Camino de Santiago to north-west Spain but the less-travelled Chemin d’Assise and Via Francigena to Rome, the mountainous path down from rural France.

And rather than each setting off solo, they will accompany Zoe’s old friend Camille - who, despite her terminal illness, insists she will walk the whole 1.600 kilometres to seek an audience with the Pope - and her not-so-ex-husband, Gilbert, who sees the trip as a gourmet tour. Then Bernhard, Martin’s young nemesis from the previous trek, shows up, along with Martin’s daughter, Sarah, who is having a quarter-life crisis and doesn’t exactly hit it off with Zoe....

This is a novel about helping the people you love, and knowing when to let go. About figuring out what you really want in life. And seizing your chances, before it’s too late.
