Nothing Here Dies

A cottage on the Norfolk coast, a walled garden where every flower is folded from painted paper, and an old woman who has spent sixty years perfecting a lie. Vivienne Lacey is dying, and she wants her granddaughter Robin to transcribe her handwritten confession — one chapter at a time, no questions asked. But Robin is a journalist, and the story of a Lancashire mill that burned in 1962, and the young aunt who died inside it, will not stay on the page.
