I’ve been thrilled by the way readers have embraced Bastien, a character I created to honour a Bastien-like character I myself met on my own pilgrimage on the Camino de Santiago.

Lyndi discussed one of my favourite characters. But as her grandmother's health deteriorates, Roonie becomes more and more reluctant to visit her in the care home.
