'Characters to fall in love with.' Jackie Morris

Time has forgotten this remote corner of West Cornwall, and left its many secrets undisturbed. Until now...

Ezra Curnow has lived in the little cottage on the Trengrose estate all his life. He was born there, as was his
father, and his grandfather before that. It is his own little Cornish paradise.

Then the mistress of the estate, Eliza, dies without leaving a will, putting the cottage’s ownership into question. London financier Toby and his wife Minty are soon enticed by Trengrose’s charm and, worse still, see a lucrative rental opportunity in Ezra’s cottage.

But Ezra is prepared to battle to save his beloved home, and has a number of secret weapons in his armoury. What Ezra doesn’t know is that Eliza also took some secrets to her grave – and she doesn’t intend to rest quietly until they come to light...

A sumptuous Cornish tale packed with heart, relationships and mysteries from the past, from the bestselling author of The Sea Gate.

Topical. Magical. Wonderful. I enjoyed this book so much I didn’t want it to end. (Barbara Erskine)

Set in the wild heart of Cornwall, Secrets of the Bees is funny, full of wise things, and the characters are gorgeous. (Rachel Hore)

Sectrets of the Bees is absolutely gorgeous - compassionate, wryly funny, full of dark family mysteries and the wild, savage beauty of nature. I laughed and I wiped away tears. A book I will re-read and treasure. (Zoë Marriott)
