A foundling, an old book of dark fairy tales, a secret garden, a maze, an aristocratic family, a love denied, a mystery - The Forgotten Garden is a captivating, atmospheric, and a compulsive listen about the past, ghosts, family, and memories from best-selling author Kate Morton.

Thirty-eight year old Cassandra is lost, alone, and grieving. Her much loved grandmother, Nell, has just died and Cassandra, her life already shaken by a tragic accident 10 years ago, feels like she has lost everything known and dear to her.

But an unexpected and mysterious bequest from Nell turns Cassandra's life upside down and ends up challenging everything she thought she knew about herself and her family. Inheriting a book of dark and intriguing fairytales written by Eliza Makepeace Rutherford - the Victorian authoress who disappeared mysteriously in the early 20th century - as well as a cliff-top cottage on the other side of the world, Cassandra takes her courage in both hands to follow in the footsteps of Nell, on a quest to find out the truth about their history, their family and their past; little knowing that in the process, she will also discover a new life for herself.

It was hard to stop listening to this engaging tale of five generations of the Montrachet family, who have been separated by jealousy and anger. Told by beautiful Eliza, Nell and her grandaughter Cassandra, it's the unveiling of the mystery of how four year old Nell ends up alone on a ship from England to Australia, there to be brought up by strangers. Nell begins a new life in Australia but leaves her grandaughter, Cassandra, to piece back together the fascinating story of Nell's childhood and where they came from. An enchanting story well told.

Thoroughly engaging tale

What a beautiful story. I savored every well chosen word. It was a book that kept me wanting more than the pace of the plot would allow. I loved it. It met every one of my requirements for a good book: romance, mystery, and unexpected twists. It's one of my all time favorites. Others would include Rebecca, Jane Eyre, and The Thirteenth Tale.

A New Favorite!

The Forgotten Garden is enchanting and engrossing. It takes you back into a time where things were still in "order", people knew their place, but YET mystery, secrets were just as alive as they are today.

I was absolutely captivated by this intricately-woven, delicately detailed, and expertly-spoken tale. I, completely and without a doubt, felt the ripple effect the writer tried to create with the multi-generational plot. From start to finish, I was enthralled and never disappointed. I will listen to this one again.

Unforgettable!
