We moved it closer to the cabin, and lit a fire under it, first of course, checking that it would hold water. This would save putting all the pots on ...he fire in the cabin and allow more heat to radiate into the cabin from the cabin fire.At dusk we lit the big bonfire, and by dark it lit up the whole clearing making the surrounding wood seem even darker. The snow began melting from the branches of the trees in a huge circle surrounding the fire. It was if we had created our own sun. The grass,. My darling Mikeya, alas, she doesn’t do mornings well. Stopping next to me, Kalani stood on tip-toe and kissed my cheek. Then turned to face Tab and his family.“Prince Michael, why don’t you introduce me to your new friends?” she asked me.

Her tearstained face and eyes bags made her almost unrecognisable. The organised, perfectionistic woman I knew had gone without leaving a trace. She clung onto my hand like a scared child, her usually piercing green.
