The Faithless Garden

Charlotte Northcott has spent thirty years avoiding Greystone House and the rain-soaked night her mother fell from the upper terrace. Now her estranged brother Philip is selling the crumbling Dorset estate, and she must return to sort through the belongings of the dead. But among her mother's things, Charlotte finds a diary that rewrites everything she thought she knew — about her mother, about her long-ago lover, and about the silence that has kept two siblings apart for three decades.
