In conversation with Paula McLean

Paula will be talking about her book 'The One Remaining'

'The One Remaining' is a captivating story of overcoming loss, finding the courage to trust those who believe in us, and the self-healing power of writing our stories.

Hilary Mason is thirteen when her sister Elaine disappears. She fears someone close to the family is involved but represses her suspicions.

As an adult, Hilary becomes a successful novelist. In her fifties, she comes upon a stack of her old diaries, which document the trauma she’s endured. She decides she is ready to face the hidden backstory of her life.

She embarks on writing a memoir, Hilary’s Story, which will take her through her worst years and her best years, through courage and endurance, through friendship and great love.
