About this listen

'Stare that beast down, Jane. Confront it. Risk everything to win everything that matters to you.'

Botanical artist Jane Saville is devastated when her manipulative mother banishes her to the countryside to cover up a sin committed by her sibling. Isolated far from home, she is forced to live an impoverished, secretive life to save the family public shame.

Guy Attwood is heir to a fortune, but prefers his quiet passion for rare-apple hunting to building the family's business empire. As one final quest before succumbing to his duty, he sets out to find a critically endangered apple species that he dreams of gifting to his friend, the soon-to-coronated George V.
When the paths of these two people from very different worlds collide, Jane begins to hope for a future filled with joy. But when an evil relative resurfaces, it will be a beloved young boy who will inspire her courage, and help her prove the triumphant power of love.

Set in the picturesque English countryside, in a forgotten orchard and beneath the ancient spire of Salisbury Cathedral, this is a heart-wrenching story about a woman who finds that in her darkest hour she can harness her greatest strength.

Your best yet

As a reader of all your books. This one is now at the top of my list, bumping off the Diamond Hunter. I couldn’t put it down. It’s intriguing, wonderfully encapsulating and brings some home truths of attitudes, selfishness and how people jump to conclusions about others. Well done Fiona and I highly recommend this book to anyone reading this review.

Such depth in the characters and their surrounds

I was immediately hooked and could not stop listening to the point that this audio made its way through my day and night while I was doing my usual things. I listened in the car on my way to an appointment, with headphones on as I cooked and dare I say disappeared early to bed so I could continue. The rich descriptions of the places and the characters were vivid and I could picture them easily.

What a lovely woven story with characters that I cried about and along with so thank you for letting me into their world and their time and lives. Beautifully written.

Marvellous

Another glorious book from Fiona McIntosh. I was entranced from the start. Could not stop listening until I’d reached the end and conclusion . I was enthralled, along with being transported to another Era. Loved the strong Characters. This is about my 15th book which I have enjoyed immensely by this Author. She always delivers a Five Star Rating, along with the Narrator Katy Sobey who was incredible. Just Terrific.
