    the age of fifteen, she falls in love with a young visitor to the town: Rafe Ashton, whom she rescues from a storm-tossed sea.
     
    But the dark clouds of war are gathering, and Beatrice, Rafe, and the Wincantons will all be swept up in the cataclysm of events that follow. Beatrice’s story is a

    THE RICHARD AND JUDY BOOK CLUB BESTSELLER
     
    The night before it all begins, Jude has the dream again . . .
     
    A successful auctioneer, Jude is struggling to come to terms with the death of her husband. When she’s asked to value a collection of scientific instruments and
    manuscripts belonging to Anthony Wickham, a lonely eighteenth-century astronomer, she leaps at the chance to escape London for the untamed beauty of Norfolk, where she grew up.
     
    As Jude untangles Wickham’s tragic story, she discovers threatening links to the present. What have her niece Summer’s nightmares to do with Starbrough folly, the
    eerie crumbling tower in the forest from which Wickham and his adopted daughter Esther once viewed the night sky? With the help of Euan, a local naturalist, Jude searches for answers in the wild,
    haunting splendour of the Norfolk woods. Dare she leave behind the sadness in her own life, and learn to love again?

    The Glass Painter’s Daughter
    In a tiny stained-glass shop hidden in the backstreets of Westminster lies the cracked, sparkling image of an angel.
     
    The owners of Minster Glass have also been broken: Fran Morrison’s mother died when she was a baby; a painful event never mentioned by her difficult, secretive father
    Edward. Fran left home to pursue a career in foreign cities, as a classical musician. But now Edward is dangerously ill and it’s time to return.
     
    Taking her father’s place in the shop, she and his craftsman Zac accept a beguiling commission – to restore a shattered glass picture of an exquisite angel belonging
    to a local church. As they reassemble the dazzling shards of coloured glass, they uncover an extraordinary love story from the Victorian past, sparked by the window’s creation. Slowly, Fran
    begins to see her own reflection in its themes of passion, tragedy and redemption . . .

    Magical Cornwall, a lost garden, a love story from long ago . . .
     
    Lamorna Cove – a tiny bay in Cornwall, picturesque, unspoilt. A hundred years ago it was the haunt of a colony of artists. Today, Mel Pentreath hopes it is a place where
    she can escape the pain of her mother’s death and a broken love affair, and gradually put her life back together.
     
    Renting a cottage in the enchanting but overgrown grounds of Merryn Hall, Mel embraces her new surroundings and offers to help her landlord, Patrick Winterton, restore the
    garden. Soon she is daring to believe her life can be rebuilt. Then Patrick finds some old paintings in an attic, and as he and Mel investigate the identity of the artist, they are drawn into an
    extraordinary tale of illicit passion and
