Three generations, one heartbreaking secret—and the past about to be uncovered …
Jess Penhaligon is on her way to London to receive an award for her botanical painting. Hosting her will be Kate, who gladly welcomes her into her home. Jess' own family fell apart several years ago, so she is grateful for Kate's friendliness—and for her close unit of extended family and friends, who embrace Jess just as warmly.
As the group begins reminiscing about their pasts and sharing their stories with Jess, it becomes apparent that her family history may be linked with theirs. Long-buried secrets from past generations are being uncovered, but at what cost have they been kept hidden?
Marcia Willett’s early
life was devoted to the ballet, but her dreams of becoming a ballerina ended
when she grew out of the classical proportions then required. She had always
loved books, and a family crisis made her take up a new career as a novelist—a
decision she has never regretted. She lives in a beautiful, wild part of Devon
with her husband, where she loves to be visited by her son and his young
family.View all by Marcia Willett
