It is the fourth of Marian Keyes' internationally best-selling Walsh sisters novels which also include Watermelon, Rachel's Holiday, Angels and now The Mystery of Mercy Close. Written in her classic style, marrying the darker parts of life with humor and wit, Anybody Out There? is Marian Keyes' best novel to date, wonderfully charming look at love here and ever after.Winner of the 2007 Popular Fiction Prize, Anybody Out There by Marian Keyes is a novel of love, loss and jealousy that is as sharply funny as it is deeply moving. Slowly beginning to remember what happened, she sets off on a search to find Aidan - a hilarious quest involving lilies (she can't stop smelling them), psychics, mediums, and anyone there who can promise her a reunion with her beloved. Recuperating from her injuries, a mystified Anna returns to Manhattan. While her mammy plays nursemaid, Anna tries to get better and keeps wondering why Aidan won't return her phone calls or emails. Until the morning she wakes up in her mammy's living room in Dublin with her face in stitches, a dislocated knee, and completely smashed-up hands - and no memory of how she got there. She has the "Best Job in the World" as a PR exec for a top-selling urban beauty brand, a lovely apartment in New York, and a perfect husband - the love of her life, Aidan Maddox. In this funny, heartbreaking, and triumphant new tale set in the Big Apple, it's Anna's turn in the spotlight.
Marian Keyes has introduced readers to the lives, loves, and foibles of the five Walsh sisters.
