Sussie Anie
A no-fault eviction led her to the world of house-sitting, and she has been moving from home to home, attempting to rebuild her life. With advice from her mentor Ekua and a virtual community of fellow house-sitters, Mercy has garnered reviews that have yielded better opportunities. Now, in what may be her last move in the UK, she is staying in Meadowlight, a refurbished cottage in a remote area of outstanding natural beauty.
Mercy's new routine provides structure. Water the plants. Feed the cats. Teach maths online. The house offers time to reflect on past relationships, reconnect with childhood friends and imagine a new future.
With a good review, she could stay in similar houses overseas. She could travel and pursue her passion for photography. But every house, even one as tranquil as Meadowlight, has its own stories. The homeowner, an art collector, is making her presence known, even in her absence. And now the three cats have disappeared . . .
From award-winning author Sussie Anie, In Meadowlight is a strikingly original and beautiful novel about transience and belonging, friendship, solitude and love.

A moving and tender portrait of a young woman in flux, with all her layered complexities, learning to untether from the past in order to move forward into the unknown. Sussie Anie skilfully weaves a delicate and dream-like exploration of the ties that bind us, friendship, love, faith and how we might come to a place we can call home (Orlaine McDonald, author of No Small Thing)
