Be swept up in the unforgettable new historical novel from the reader’s favourite. Can Rosina discover the hidden secrets of Moonshadow Manor?

When spirited Rosina Wills is driven from her London home by a conniving stepmother, she seeks refuge in the wild heart of Dartmoor. But Moonshadow Manor is a house of secrets—and her ailing Aunt Jane is not the only one in need.

As Rosina settles into her new life, she soon realises Moonshadow Manor holds secrets of its own. With every passing day, she uncovers more about her family. But as long-buried truths begin to surface, will Rosina find the answers she’s looking for … or something she never dreamed of?

A sweeping, emotional tale of love, loyalty and the strength of a fearless heart.
