The Sanctuary Keepers (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781837002214)

Some places choose us when we need them most. Hideaway House has been keeping its secrets, waiting for the right person to finally walk through the door...

When Carrie Adams flees to the remote, pretty Isle of Wight after her life crumbles, all she wants is quiet solitude to heal. Hideaway House, with its thatched roof and weathered turquoise door, seems the perfect retreat - a place where time stands still.

As Carrie settles into island life, she's drawn into a circle of unlikely friends: apple-cheeked Rita, whose warmth feels like coming home; the prickly Major, guarding his own grief; and Guy, a tousle-haired gardener whose quiet presence stirs something unexpected in her heart.

But the house holds secrets of its own - whispers in empty rooms lead Carrie to an old tea caddy of bittersweet memories of a family who once lived here, long ago. As Carrie begins to piece together the cottage's achingly beautiful secrets, she realises that the threads connecting past and present could be the key to finally finding her own fragile peace...

A love story tainted by tragedy, a promise left unfulfilled and a voice that won't be silenced, even by death. The Sanctuary Keepers is an enchanting story of second chances and the healing power of finding where you truly belong.
