Description
Ezra Curnow has lived in the little cottage on the edge of the Trengrose estate all his life. He was born there, his father was born there, and his grandfather before him. It is his own little paradise.
But when Eliza Rosevear, the mistress of the estate, dies without leaving a will, the ownership of Ezra's cottage comes into question. Especially when financier Toby Hardman and his wife acquire Trengrose House. Toby immediately sniffs an opportunity to acquire the run-down cottage to rent out to Cornish tourists.
And when Toby Hardman removes the ancient Celtic cross that gives the estate its name, battle lines are drawn between them.
But it turns out the recently deceased mistress of Trengrose took some secrets to her grave. And she doesn't intend to rest quietly until they come to light...

Ezra has lived in his home all his life, now Toby wants to buy the cottage to rent to tourists and will probably lie and cheat to get it.
Set in beautful Cornwall, this novel is amazing. it is a story beautifully told and i absolutely loved it.
Secrets taken to the grave and mysteries uncovered make this read intriguing and I loved how the late mistress helps Ezra do what he has to do to save his home
A lovely read .. and one to help you lose yourself for a while.

I loved this . Hard to review but a book you could not put down. Some great twists and a lovely ending. A London family buy a Cornish estate and you follow their journey .They think they own more than do, ace characters and the way the bees are involved in the story is great . I can’t praise this book enough . Read it

A house with a secret, a mysterious past and a love story is always hard to put down. This book is exactly that. Set in Cornwall this is a beautiful read. It is well written with great descriptions and attention to detail. I was drawn in from page one, Brilliant!
