Summary
’Who died?' I said. 'Or is it a secret?' 'My mother, Vianne Rocher.'
Seeking refuge and anonymity in the cobbled streets of Montmartre, Yanne and her daughters, Rosette and Annie, live peacefully, if not happily, above their little chocolate shop. Nothing unusual marks them out; no red sachets hang by the door. The wind has stopped - at least for a while.
Then into their lives blows Zozie de l’Alba, the lady with the lollipop shoes, and everything begins to change…. But this new friendship is not what it seems. Ruthless, devious and seductive, Zozie de l’Alba has plans of her own – plans that will shake their world to pieces. And with everything she loves at stake, Yanne must face a difficult choice; to flee, as she has done so many times before, or to confront her most dangerous enemy… Herself.

Magical, exciting and captivating
I was dubious at first as I thought it was just a re-hashed Chocolat story but although it does follow the same characters and similar themes it just got better and better and I couldn't wait to listen to it every day. I love the way Harris weaves the fantastical in with the mundanity of every day modern life.

Gorgeous reading of a beautiful story
This book, like the first, feels as slow and warm as the chocolate a lot of the time, but sometimes a twist of chilli surprises you. Wonderful magical tale.

Well read & keeps you guessing right until the end
Although some of the characters are from other books by Joanne Harris this is an excellent book and can stand alone, without knowledge of previous stories...
Well narrated and keeps you guessing right until the end....

Gripping
Was unsure about buying this book at first. I knew there was a film out in cinemas, however I am pleased if did. I like the pace of the story, the narration and at times I was a little concerned st the detail. A good listen and may well buy more from this author.

Beautifully read
Juliet Stephenson really captures the feeling of this book, it is a lovely story, and so magical and spiritual too. Best to read Chocolat first or the plot would be confusing about past references. I would highly recommend this book with the vivid descriptions, and complex relationships...I didn`t want it to end, and immediately purchased the book that follows this one, and enjoyed that too..a brilliant listen !
