The Windmill Paperback by K Lewis Adair (Fiction)

What is love at first sight – an instant connection, or something we only understand in hindsight? Does fate quietly guide our steps, or do we create our own meaning from chance? And what if our dreams are more than imagination – what if they are trying to reach us?

Virginia “Ginny” Lewis Faulkner never expected her life to change with a single inheritance. A forgotten house, left to her without warning, seems like an unexpected gift. Yet as she steps inside and begins to uncover its history, she finds herself drawn into a mystery that stretches far beyond her own life.

At the centre of it all is her great-aunt, Florence Stanley – a woman spoken of only in fragments, who vanished in the chaos of Holland during 1940. Determined to understand what happened, Ginny begins tracing her past. But with every answer comes another question, and it soon becomes clear that some truths were deliberately hidden, waiting for the right moment to surface.

Moving across three different eras, this story follows lives bound together in ways they cannot fully see. Love is found and lost, choices echo through time, and the past lingers in unexpected ways. As their stories unfold, one question remains – are we ever truly separate from those who came before us, or are we all part of something far greater?
