Charlotte is a
successful publisher and she is trying to work on writing her own
novel for the first time. When she is hit by writers block and feels
too ashamed to ask for help from the many authors she knows, fearing
it makes her look like a failure, she heads from her London base to
the island of Guernsey to see friend Louisa and to stay at the
beautiful and spiritual natural health centre on the island to relax
and recharge to get her in the right frame of mind so she can
continue writing.
What started off as
a short-break soon changes when she helps out a well known author on
the island with some research. Charlotte soon finds out a family
injustice has been done and she becomes emotionally involved and keen
to solve the mystery of a families secrets. She gets particular close
to Andy who believes his family have been cheated out of their
rightful inheritance.
Will she find the
answers to help heal a family torn apart from years of feuding?
I really enjoyed
this story. This is the first book I have read out of the Guernsey
novels and I would read more. When you get to the end of the chapters
you cannot help but read on due to the clever way author Anne Allen
leaves you in suspense and wanting to read on to see what happens
next.
Thanks Nikki for your lovely review ☺
