'A moving and enchanting story with an uplifting message of hope at its heart... Be warned - you will need tissues. Caroline's best book yet!' Dinah Jefferies
'Warm, moving, romantic' Prue Leith
'Tender and moving' Jane Bailey
'A beautiful portrait of love and loss, and of hope in adversity' Sarah Steele
Marina and Hugh were once madly in love. But after the loss of their beautiful little daughter, grief has created a distance between them that feels impossible to bridge. Marina knows leaving Italy is the only way they will be able to move on, but Thorncliffe Hall, Hugh's family home in England, is so grey and unwelcoming.
Just when life feels like it may never regain colour, Marina and Hugh come across a striking china coffee pot in a London shop window, adorned with a fox flying through the night sky. The coffee pot comes attached with a mystery, one that is connected with Hugh's own family many years ago.
By digging into the past, Marina is about to discover a story far beyond her wildest dreams. But will the past help her heal the present?
A heartwrenching, utterly unforgettable story for fans of Sally Page and Amanda Prowse.
