Set evocatively in the North Island of New Zealand, Postcards is a light, yet moving, sometimes dramatic, often humorous, emotional-roller-coaster romance-mystery page-turner, with a surprise sting in the tail, from New Zealand author, George Adams. Constrained widower at twenty-six, Adam Peters, thinks he knew his wife, Tracy. He thinks he knows her family, their friends, their world. Then he begins receiving postcards from Julie, an old friend of Tracy she never told him about, from a phase in her life she never told him about. As he learns more about Tracy’s old life through Julie, Adam sees his world anew and bursts into new life himself. Of course, competing romantic interests, Libby and Yvette, have quite a lot to do with his rediscovery of love and lust, too. Most astonishing to Adam are his discoveries about Tracy's family and its history.

George Adams has led a variety of astonishing everyday lives, mainly in Hamilton, New Zealand. He would love to be twenty-six again.
