2011 book 174

Samantha Sotto's Before Ever After
Shelley, a young widow, is astounded when a man comes to her house claiming to be her young dead husband's grandson (with photographic evidence) and that her husband Max is actually alive. As they travel to find him, Shelley tells the story of their courtship--which actually contains the story of her husband's long life. Interesting characters and I especially liked Max as an eccentric tourguide of Europe. But though it had the end it needed to have, it still felt unsatisfying for some reason. B.
