'As ever, Rosamunde Pilcher has kept me enthralled to the very last page' Reader review ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
The endearing bestseller from the much-loved Rosamunde Pilcher
Born in Colombo, Judith Dunbar spends her teenage years at boarding school, while her beloved mother and younger sister live abroad with her father. When her new friend Loveday Carey-Lewis invites Judith home for the weekend to Nancherrow, the Carey-Lewises' beautiful estate on the Cornish coast, it is love at first sight.
