From the internationally bestselling author of The House at Riverton, an unforgettable new novel that transports the reader from the back alleys of poverty of pre-World War I London to the shores of colonial Australia where so many made a fresh start, and back to the windswept coast of Cornwall, England, past and present A tiny girl is abandoned on a * headed for Australia in 1913. She arrives completely alone with nothing but a small suitcase containing a few clothes and a single book -- a beautiful volume of fairy tales. She is taken in by the dockmaster and his wife and raised as their own. On her twenty-first birthday they tell her the truth, and with her sense of self shattered and with very little to go on, "Nell" sets out on a journey to England to try to trace her story, to fi nd her real identity. Her quest leads her to Blackhurst Manor on the Cornish coast and the secrets of the doomed Mountrachet family. But it is not until her granddaughter, Cassandra, takes up the search after Nell's death that all the pieces of the puzzle are assembled. At Cliff Cottage, on the grounds of Blackhurst Manor, Cassandra discovers the forgotten garden of the book's title and is able to unlock the secrets of the beautiful book of fairy tales. This is a novel of outer and inner journeys and an homage to the power of storytelling. The Forgotten Garden is fi lled with unforgettable characters who weave their way through its spellbinding plot to astounding effect. Morton's novels are #1 bestsellers in England and Australia and are published in more than twenty languages. Her fi rst novel, The House at Riverton, was a New York Times bestseller.

Review:
"A beautifully written and satisfying novel." (The Daily Express)

"The Forgotten Garden weaves its powerful spell slowly and beautifully." (Waterstone's Quarterly magazine)

"After her grandmother, Nell's, death, Cassandra wants to know how Nell turned up, alone, in Australia as a child, and what a children's author had to do with it. Caroline Lee's elegant voice has an ethereal quality that emphasizes the fairy-tale motif that runs throughout this novel, but her delivery is also realistic enough to keep the story grounded. She holds listeners' attention well, guiding them through a complex story that moves among three generations as Cassandra follows the mystery's threads. By the time Cassandra finds her answers, the vivid characters will have listeners enthralled. Even though it features a tale of childhood with a fairy-tale motif, Morton's grim story is for grown-ups." (AudioFile Magazine)
Book Description:
