About The Book
Could you tell a story packed with heartbreak and happiness? Meet four women who can.
There’s Nancy, kitchen maid at Westercombe Manor in 1929. She can’t resist adding a sentence to Master Blackwood’s novel while dusting his typewriter and soon finds herself drawn in as co-writer.
There’s Maud, who’s lived on the Westercombe estate since the 1940s. A proud grandmother to Pearl and Saffie, she loved telling them bedtime stories – but some tales she has vowed never to tell.
Pearl‘s now living on the other side of the world, reeling from divorce and bereavement, until a crisis means Saffie summons her home. Once close, the cousins have hardly spoken since the summer it all went so horribly wrong.
A battered trunk might hold the key to the secrets that bind them together across the decades, but are they willing to read between the lines to find the truth at last?
