The Forgotten Garden by Kate Morton


I do not know when I have enjoyed reading a book more.

This is a big sprawling old fashioned saga, spanning over 100 years time, filled with intrigue, romance, history, fairy tales, and good writing.

Cassandra's grandmother Nell wills her a house in Cornwall that she knows nothing about, as well as a child's white suitcase containing a lavishly illustrated book of fairy tales.

Of course Cass travels from her home in Australia to see the house in Cornwall, and there she discovers a house full of secrets, with a secret walled garden behind it (yes! think The Secret Garden by F.H. Burnett!)

The story shifts back and forth in time, as more details are revealed and mysteries unraveled.

A great read, sure to keep you turning the pages, then sorry when it is over.
