From three beloved authors comes a collection of stories that
examines questions of healing, legacy, and love against the rich
backdrop of a historical castle-and its adjoining poison garden.
Leedswick Castle has housed the Alnwick family for generations. But
the world around it is changing, and secrets that have long been
buried will soon come to light. 1899: Beatrice, an American, seeks
the legitimacy of a British title to add prestige to her fortune.
She hopes for love in her marriage of convenience to Charles at
Leedswick Castle, but she finds herself entangled in a
generations-long family intrigue. 1917: Tobias, eventual heir of
Beatrice and Charles, finds himself convalescing from the
battlefields of WWI with a scarred face back at Leedswick. Elena is
the young artist tasked with painting a realistic mask for the
isolated hero, and they both learn to find beauty and love in
unexpected places-but disaster lurks just outside the castle walls.
1945: Alec finds himself the heir to Leedswick, but he carries the
burden of shell-shock from his time in WWII. He seeks to make the
castle into a refuge for those who are similarly haunted, calling
upon a renowned psychologist and the doctor's niece, Elisa, to help
him. Through the generations, the castle is both shelter and
prison, haunting and home. It is only when its inhabitants look
inward that they can free both the castle and themselves from the
shackles of the past.
