When Vianne Rocher receives a letter from beyond the grave, she has no choice but to follow the wind that blows her back to Lansquenet, the village in which eight years ago, she opened up a chocolate shop.
But returning to her old home, Vianne is completely unprepared for what she is to find there. Women veiled in black, the scent of spices and peppermint tea - and there, on the bank of the river Tannes, facing the church, a minaret.

When artist Maddie inherits a house in Cornwall shortly
after the death of her husband, she hopes it will be the fresh start she and
her step-daughter Hannah desperately need.
Trevenen is beautiful but neglected, a rambling house
steeped in history. Maddie is enchanted by it and determined to learn as much
as she can about its past. As she discovers the stories of generations of women
who've lived there before, Maddie begins to feel her life is somehow
intertwined within its walls.
But Maddie's dream of a calm life in the countryside is far
from the reality she faces. Still struggling with her grief and battling with
Hannah, Maddie is unable to find inspiration for her painting and realises she
may face the prospect of having to sell Trevenen, just as she is coming to love
it.
And as Maddie and Hannah pull at the seams of Trevenen's
past, the house reveals secrets that have lain hidden for generations.
