Firefly Lane I actually purchased this (at a second hand book store in Boston) because I was kind of undecided to give Nightingale (by the same author) a try or not. Then I saw it there lying cheap on the shelves I said why not without knowing much about the book. It is a friendship story and it is compared to Beaches (I have not read the book but the film was a cry fest) and rightly so.
Spoilers:
Yes they are life long friends and yes one of them dies of cancer leaving three children behind. I was almost howling by the end of it and it was not a boring ride to get there. However this may not be a memorable book.
And now that I know more about this writer I'll give Nightingale a try if I see it cheap.
