Description
Admiral House stands proudly in the Suffolk countryside. It is Posy Montague's family home, the place where she spent her childhood chasing butterflies with her father before raising her own children there. The house has held her greatest joys and her greatest sorrows. Nearing seventy, Posy must acknowledge the dilapidated state of the property and resign herself to selling it, despite the memories accumulated there and the garden she patiently designed and admired for twenty-five years. The sudden reappearance of Freddie, her childhood sweetheart, turns everything upside down. While already struggling to manage the questionable behaviour of her son, Sam, and the return from Australia of Nick, her youngest, after ten years of absence, Posy finds it hard to be convinced by Freddie's rekindled affections. Perhaps she senses that he, just like Admiral House, has not revealed his last secret? A captivating multi-generational saga with endearing characters and heartbreaking secrets… the unique signature of Lucinda Riley.
