The Forgotten Garden
A lost child
On the eve of the first world war, a little girl is found abandoned
on a ship to Australia. A mysterious woman called the Authoress had
promised to look after her - but the Authoress has disappeared
without a trace.
A terrible secret
On the night of her twenty-first birthday, Nell O'Connor learns a
secret that will change her life forever. Decades later, she
embarks upon a search for the truth that leads her to the windswept
Cornish coast and the strange and beautiful Blackhurst Manor, once
owned by the aristocratic Mountrachet family.
A mysterious inheritance
On Nell's death, her grand-daughter, Cassandra, comes into an
unexpected inheritance. Cliff Cottage and its forgotten garden are
notorious amongst the Cornish locals for the secrets they hold -
secrets about the doomed Mountrachet family and their ward Eliza
Makepeace, a writer of dark Victorian fairytales. It is here that
Cassandra will finally uncover the truth about the family, and
solve the century-old mystery of a little girl lost.
A captivating and atmospheric story of secrets, family and memory
from the international bestselling author Kate Morton.
