But when old Narcisse the florist dies leaving a parcel of land to Rosette and a written confession to Reynaud the life of the sleepy village is once more thrown into disarray. The arrival of Narcisse’s relatives the departure of an old friend and the opening of a mysterious new shop in the place of the florist’s across the square – one that mirrors the chocolaterie and has a strange appeal of its own – all seem to herald some kind of change: a confrontation a turbulence – even perhaps a murder… ‘A writer whose wit and sharp observation enhances her engaging story-telling’ Salley Vickers ‘The most magical stunningly beautiful novel . . .
