Arriving in the rural idyll of Tindledale, she’s dismayed to find Edith’s cottage and the orchards surrounding it in a sorry state of disrepair. Edith seems to have lost interest completely, instead she’s become desperate to find out what happened to her sister, Winnie, who disappeared during WWII.
April gets to work immediately, discovering that the orchard still delivers a bumper crop each year, and with the help of some of the villagers – including Matt, the enigmatic Farrier – begins to unravel the mystery of the missing Winnie. Slowly,
April can feel things coming to life again – but can Orchard Cottage work its magic on her too?

Its alright

It seemed like the storyline drug on without much magic. It wasnt like a light hearted light read nor was there any real depth.

Beautiful book.

A wonderful book. I laughed and cried. The authors note was especially wonderful. Well done.

Speed up please

Nice story but the narrator was reading way to slow. It made it hard to follow the different storylines.
