Produktbeschreibung

1909. Cornwall. Her family ruined, Bea is forced to leave Tressillion House, and self-made business woman Sybil moves in. Owning Tressillion is Sybil's triumph - but now what? As the house casts its spell over her, as she starts to make friends in the village despite herself, will Sybil be able to build a new life here, or will hatred always rule her heart?

Bea finds herself in London, responsible for her mother and sister's security. Her only hope is to marry Jonathon, the new heir. Desperate for options, she stumbles into the White Camellia tearoom, a gathering place for the growing suffrage movement. For Bea it's life-changing, can she pursue her ambition if it will heap further scandal on the family? Will she risk arrest or worse?

When those very dangers send Bea and her White Camellia friends back to Cornwall, the two women must finally confront each other and Tresillion's long buried secrets.

Autorenporträt

Juliet Greenwood is the author of two previous historical novels for Honno Press, both of which reached #4 and #5 in the UK Amazon Kindle store. Eden's Garden was a finalist for 'The People's Book Prize'. We That are Left was completed with a Literature Wales Writers' Bursary, and was Welsh Book of the month for Waterstones Wales, the Welsh Books Council and the National Museum of Wales. It was also chosen by the Country Wives website as one of their top ten 'riveting reads' of 2014, was one of the top ten reads of the year for the 'Word by Word' blog, and a Netmums top summer read for 2014. Juliet's grandmother worked as a cook in a big country house, leaving Juliet with a passion for history and in particular for the experiences of women, which are often overlooked or forgotten. Juliet trained as a photographer when working in London, before returning to live in a traditional cottage in Snowdonia. She loves gardening and walking, and trying out old recipes her grandmother might have used, along with exploring the upstairs and downstairs of old country houses.
