Out of the Blue by Charlotte Bingham is just a bit weird to be totally honest with you.
One morning Florence Fontaine finds a strange man asleep in her guest cottage. He's wearing some rather outdated clothes and seems to have no idea who he is or where he is. Circumstances mean that Florence ends up taking him under her wing as her, and her family and friends, try to work out exactly who he is.
The book seems to flit between this bizarre set up and Florence's daughter Amadea's life in Swindon. Amadea becomes involved in helping to identify the young man, but at the same time seems to be living in some sort of chick lit book.
Quite a strange mix. I'm not sure I'll be looking out for any of her other books, but it was a quick adn easy weekend read.
