'A sweeping novel you won't put down' Katie Ffforde 'I can't remember the last time I was so enthralled and affected by a story and its characters' Red 'Utterly gorgeous and filled with flowers and paintings, secrets and heartbreak ... and always hope' Veronica Henry 'Epic, absorbing ... full of intrigue, emotion and characters who'll really stay with you' Fabulous This new novel from Sunday Times bestseller Harriet Evans delights fans with the heartbreaking tale of a family ripped apart and the extraordinary house they called home. Nightingale House, 1919. Liddy Horner discovers her husband, the world-famous artist Sir Edward Horner, burning his best-known painting The Garden of Lost and Found days before his sudden death. Nightingale House was the Horner family's beloved home - a gem of design created to inspire happiness - and it was here Ned painted The Garden of Lost and Found, capturing his children on a perfect day, playing in the rambling Eden he and Liddy made for them. One magical moment. Before it all came tumbling down... When Ned and Liddy's great-granddaughter Juliet is sent the key to Nightingale House, she opens the door onto a forgotten world. The house holds its mysteries close but she is in search of answers. For who would choose to destroy what they love most? Whether Ned's masterpiece - or, in Juliet's case, her own children's happiness. Something shattered this corner of paradise. But what? Harriet Evans brings her readers home...
