Description

'My name is May Lanigan. Today is my 44th birthday and I'm quietly going out of my mind...'

Entertaining Ambrose is the story of the lovable May who bears life's burdens so lightly, tending always to other's needs before her own. And now her husband, Clem, has left her, with no explanation and no forwarding address, only orders not to be contacted.

What do you do when your husband mysteriously ups and leaves? Do you sit around, waiting? Or do you fight to get your life back?

But May Lanigan is not alone. Quietly observing, gently protecting is Ambrose, her own personal angel. And together the two of them embark on a journey full of danger and adventures that May would never have believed possible. Witty and finely observed, this is a spellbinding tale of an extraordinary woman and her extraordinary friend.
