What to expect
Greta Jellings blushes and bumbles her way through her carefully ordered existence, forever constrained by what her mother would have said and done. No expectation, no disappointment was one of her mother's mantras, and it has served Greta well too. But it is the death of her dear friend Walter, and his unusual bequest, that finally force her to escape the shackles of her safe life. For Walter has set Greta a challenge that leads her across the world, so far outside her comfort zone that she has no choice but to confront who she really is. In the foreignness of strangers she will find the familiar, and in the expanse of the vista she will gain perspective. Most of all, she will find the courage to be seen, and express her true self...
