Paper cup

Summary: "Rocked by a terrible accident, homeless Kelly needs to escape the city streets of Glasgow. Maybe she doesn't believe in serendipity, but a rare moment of kindness and a lost ring conspire to call her home. As Kelly vows to reunite the lost ring with its owner, she must return to the small town she fled so many years ago. On her journey, Kelly encounters ancient pilgrim routes, hostile humans, hippies, book lovers, and a friendly dog, as memories stir and the people she thought she'd left behind for ever move closer with every step."--
