Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

New York Times bestselling author Jenny Colgan returns to the setting of her beloved Little Beach Street Bakery series for a timely and heartfelt novel set in a Cornish seaside village.

Marisa Rossi can't understand why everyone else is getting on with their lives as she still struggles to get over the death of her beloved grandfather, back home in Italy. Everyone loses grandparents, right? Why is she taking it so badly?

Retreating further and further from normal life, she moves to the end of the earth--the remote tidal island of Mount Polbearne, at the foot of Cornwall, hoping for peace and solitude, whilst carrying on her job as a registrar, dealing with births, weddings, and deaths, even as she feels life is passing her by.

Unfortunately--or fortunately?--the solitude she craves proves elusive. Between her noisy Russian piano-teaching neighbor, the bustle and community spirit of the tiny village struggling back to life after the quarantine, and the pressing need to help save the local bakery, can Marisa find her joy again at the end of the world?

Moving to a Cornish seaside village, hoping for peace and solitude, lonely registrar Marisa Rosso, feeling like life is passing her by, unexpectedly finds her joy again with the help of her noisy neighbor, the community spirit and a campaign to save the local bakery.

Booklist Review

Best-selling author Colgan brings readers back to the sleepy seaside town of Mount Polbearne in the latest in her popular Little Beach Street Bakery series (after Christmas at Little Beach Street Bakery, 2016). Marisa Rossi is heartbroken over the death of her grandfather, whose sudden passing leaves a gaping hole in her world. Her all-consuming grief leads her to isolate herself from her friends, her family, and her job. When her roommate approaches her with an opportunity to move to the seaside town of Mount Polbearne, Marisa sees it as the perfect opportunity to escape, well, everything. As soon as she moves into her seaside flat, Marisa has no intention of leaving it. She can't, really, because her grief has manifested as agoraphobia. But over time, with the help of her therapist and her enigmatic neighbor, Marisa begins to find the strength to put one foot in front of the other. Sunrise by the Sea is an emotional, heartwarming exploration of grief and anxiety that contemporary women's fiction fans will want on their shelves.
