Synopsis
When Rosie Churchill moves into the beautiful but run-down Castaway House in the seaside town of Helmston in 1965, she uncovers a scandal that has been hidden for nearly half a century. Robert Carver lived at Castaway House in its 1920s heyday, when it was the seaside home of a wealthy but damaged family caught up in a tragic case of mistaken identity, heartbreak and a suspicious disappearance. Trying to bury her own difficult past, Rosie is looking for a fresh start. But the more she learns about Robert Carver, the further she is drawn into the mysterious history of the house. And the more their stories, old and new, entwine., This stunning debut novel is a gripping read laced with mystery, secrets and love - perfect for fans of Agatha Christie, Tracy Chevalier and Sarah Waters. There are secrets hiding between the walls at Castaway House . . . __________ 1924 Robert Carver escapes to the glamorous Castaway House to spend a summer in the company of his much wealthier cousin, Alec Bray. But appearances can be deceiving, and the Brays are a damaged family, with even more damaging secrets. And little does Robert know that his world is about to change for ever. . . 1965 Rosie Churchill has run away from home and everything she knows to stay at the rundown Castaway House. But when she begins to discover a long-buried scandal she soon comes to realise that neither her own troubled past nor that of the house will stay secret for long. . . As Rosie begins to learn more about Robert, the further she is drawn into the mysterious history of the house, and their stories, old and new, entwine. ____________ 'An incredibly intricate story and wonderfully well written' 5* reader review 'A gripping read with finely wrought characters and lots of rich detail and colour' 5* reader review 'I became totally immersed' 5* reader review
