About this listen

 Escape to Cornwall this summer with the new emotional and uplifting novel from Sunday Times #1 bestselling author Fern Britton

Set by the wild Atlantic coast of Cornwall comes a story about finding home in the most unlikely places.

When Cordelia Jago learns she’s been left the crumbling manor house Wilder Hoo, perched high on the Cornish coast, she wonders if it’s one last cruel joke from beyond the grave.

Having already lost her marriage, her best friend and her career, she’s at rock-bottom. Now she’s inherited a house she hates, full of unhappy memories.

But as she fights with its echoing rooms and whispering shadows, the house begins to exert a pull on her. The wild Cornish landscape, the stark beauty of seagrass and yellow gorse against the deep blue sea, begin to awaken a connection she thought she’d buried forever.

Could she turn around this monstrous wreck of a house – and, along the way, let go of the secrets of the past and heal her heart too?

The story flowed beautifully as do all her stories and I was captivated right from the start and eager to hear the conclusion but sad when it had ended

I love Fern Britton’s books but this was really special.Normally it bothers me when a book goes backwards and forwards in time but Fern has done this perfectly. Her reading is beautiful too. What a wonderful story! Obviously so much research has been done. Yes it’s a romance but mostly with a house. So much feeling has gone into this it’s obvious how much Fern loves Cornwall as do I. I really feel as if I know the house and the people so well. You must read this!!

Wonderful story and beautifully read.
