In Person: Critics' Circle Book Group - The Keeper of Lost Things

The title for this month is The Keeper of Lost Things by Ruth Hogan.

Anthony Pardew is the keeper of lost things. Forty years ago, he carelessly lost a keepsake from his beloved fiancée,Therese. That very same day she died unexpectedly. Brokenhearted, Anthony sought consolation in rescuing lost objects and writing stories about them. In the twilight of his years he worries that he has not fully discharged his duty to reconcile all the lost things with their owners. He bequeaths his life's secret mission and his house to his unexpecting assistant, Laura.
