Woodspring: The BRAND NEW utterly captivating wartime family saga from a bestselling author

An unforgettable, sweeping novel of war and its aftermath, self discovery and family drama through the ages.

'A gorgeous read . . . there are some authors who were just made to write . . . you step into the pages, you step into a family.' Reader review, 5 stars

'Will the war last long? People are going to suffer and will have to make sacrifices, and everything will have to be on hold. It's horrible to contemplate but I'm twenty-seven and I can't help wondering if by the time it's over it'll be too late for me.'

Since the house was built in 1810, the Danes have lived in the elegant, light-filled rooms of Woodspring, and walked in the fields and woods that surround the house. Over the years, and through the changing seasons, it has brought shelter, solace and joy.

But now it's 1940 and Europe is in the midst of war. Everything is changing, and nothing will be the same again.

The next three generations of Danes will live very different lives to their predecessors, at home and abroad. Yet they know they are forever tied to Woodspring.

Love and fortunes may come and go, no one is untouched by loss... But, throughout all this, Woodspring remains a constant.
