A delightful, sweet, and funny book from best-selling novelist Tess Evans, Mercy Block says the heartwarming story of curmudgeonly pensioner George, who, since his wife's death three years previously, is living a life that is no more than the total of his "worn-out, washed out days". While his relationship to Pen was a happy one, they never had children, so his life has narrowed to outings to the shop, occasional trips from his bossy sister, Shirl, and afternoons in the pub with his old mate Redgum. But one day, everything changes when Angie, a 19-year-old single mother, unexpectedly will save his life. George grudgingly acknowledges his arrears to her, and later, when Angie requests a favour, he does not have any choice but to agree with the fact. Eventually George's life begins to blossom until Angie's fecklessness unexpectedly places him on the incorrect side of the law. It takes most of his love and courage, and friends both old and new, for George to deal with a very surprising turn of events. A novel about faults, accidental households, and the transformative electric power of love, from the best-selling writer of Reserve of Lost Threads, Tess Evans.
