Under the Almond Tree

Abandoned children. Wicked mothers. Deadly secrets. Sometimes life's a real fairytale.

When Sophie Baker starts searching for answers about her birth and identity, the journey takes her from New Zealand to England, India and Germany, each place drawing her further back into her family's carefully buried past. What she discovers will derail her sheltered life and change her future. But unearthing the truth will also dramatically impact those who came before. Separated across times and continents yet bound by blood and by a single, hateful act, four women, four generations, finally converge in the place it all started, and a horrifying history looks set to repeat itself.
