It's nearly thirty years since the Chadwick siblings arrived from Kenya at The Keep in Devon to live with their grandmother Freddy. And while much has altered since in their lives, The Keep remains a sanctuary for the whole family; warm, unchanging, filled with love. Now mistress of The Keep, Fliss finds it hard to fill the place of her beloved grandmother, especially when she has so many doubts in her life. Mole has settled into his second family, the Navy. And Susanna, always the baby, is now a wife and mother herself.
But whatever challenges they face, the family know that the house will always be ready to welcome them home.

Customer Reviews
I lived in this book
Utterly enchanting. I fell in love with, lived and grieved with, all the characters. I lived in The Keep, and knew the grounds and countryside. What a great story, I want more.
Family life
I could not put this book down. The ups and downs of family life, in an era I remember well. A gentle time, but still very cruel at times. My own mother would have responded to Hal and Fliss’s falling in love, in the same way as the Chadwick family. It was the era and children whatever their age would do as the adults advised.
I was so happy when everything came together for a happy ending.
Brilliant
Loved this trilogy of books ….just wonderful. !,
