Mr Sidhu’s Post Office

‘[A] moving family drama … If you don't fall in love with Mr Sidhu, as I did, then I can't help you!’BBC News, 12 Books to Read in 2026 ‘I found Mr Sidhu’s story – through all its twists and turns – utterly compelling … a testament to the power of family, friendship, community, and love. It’s an absolute treasure’ Ruth Hogan, Sunday Times bestselling author of The Keeper of Lost Things * * * * It's 2007, and Mr Sidhu is the sub-postmaster of the local post office in Richmond. He's grieving the passing of his wife and is preoccupied with honouring his final promise to her: to make sure his two grown-up children are settled and comfortable, which means helping Raju buy his own place and seeing to it that Meenu finally marries her long-term fiancé, Craig. But Mr Sidhu is thrown off course when he begins developing feelings for his co-worker Rose, and everything starts to change, including his relationship with his children. And then Mr Sidhu's weekly accounts begin reporting a loss. He doesn't know what's happening or where that money has gone, but as the collective losses increases, Mr Sidhu has no way of paying it back. Will those in the community who Mr Sidhu has served so loyally rally around him before it’s too late? Or could this be the end of Mr Sidhu’s post office … ?
