Pre order the next beautiful historical romance 'Good Taste' from
Caroline Scott now. From the highly acclaimed author of The
Photographer of the Lost, a BBC Radio 2 Book Club Pick, comes a
tale of a young war widow and one life-changing, sun-drenched visit
to Cornwall in the summer of 1923... 1923. Esme Nicholls is to
spend the summer in Cornwall. Her late husband Alec, who died
fighting in WWI, grew up in Penzance, and she's hoping to learn
more about the man she loved and lost. While there, she will stay
with Gilbert, in his rambling seaside house, where he lives with
his former brothers in arms. Esme is nervous at first to be the
only woman in this community of eccentric artists and former
soldiers. But as she gets to know the men and their stories, she
begins to feel this summer might be exactly what she needs. But
everything is not as idyllic as it seems - a mysterious new arrival
later in the summer will turn Esme's world upside down, and make
her question everything she thought she knew about her life, and
the people in it. Full of light, laughter and larger-than-life
characters, The Visitors is a novel of one woman finally finding
her voice and choosing her own path forwards. Praise for Caroline
