Product Information: Set by the wild Atlantic coast of Cornwall comes a story about finding home in the most unlikely places.
When Cordelia Jago learns she's been left the crumbling manor house Wilder Hoo, perched high on the Cornish coast, she wonders if it's one last cruel joke from beyond the grave.
Having already lost her marriage, her best friend and her career, she's at rock-bottom. Now she's inherited a house she hates, full of unhappy memories.
But as she fights with its echoing rooms and whispering shadows, the house begins to exert a pull on her. The wild Cornish landscape, the stark beauty of seagrass and yellow gorse against the deep blue sea, begin to awaken a connection she thought she'd buried forever.
Could she turn around this monstrous wreck of a house - and, along the way, let go of the secrets of the past and heal her heart too?
