Seven letters. Seven lives. One story of hope and healing.

What if a letter could change your life for ever?

Iris is used to being alone. In fact, she prefers it that way. The only place she feels at peace is sitting on a bench in the graveyard where her beloved husband Mark is buried, with her little dog alongside her - the only company she needs.

But when seven letters mysteriously arrive at her house, addressed to seven strangers, Iris' comfortable solitude is disrupted. Each letter seems to be for a person who, like Iris, is also suffering loss. Iris immediately feels the need to deliver the letters to the right people. She knows from experience how much something like this could help them.

She tries to post the letters on, but they keep being returned. So she decides to invite each of the seven recipients to a beautiful house in Cornwall. Her plan, to present the letters herself, then allow each person the time to read them alone in the calm and peaceful setting.

But with a change of scenery, new friends and maybe even a little romance on the cards, Iris finds she might want to stay a little longer at the house than she’d first planned.
