2021 HCDJ in excellent condition. From the author of The Light Over London and the "gripping, moving" (Kelly Rimmer) The Whispers of War comes a poignant and heart wrenching tale of five women in three eras, whose lives are tied together by one very special garden. Emma Lovett, who has dedicated her career to breathing new life into long-neglected gardens, has just been given the opportunity of a lifetime: to restore the gardens of the famed Highbury House estate, designed in 1907 by her hero Venetia Smith. But as Emma dives deeper into the gardens' past, she begins to uncover secrets that have long lain hidden.

From recent Amazon/GoodReads reviews: "I liked that a beautiful garden linked women together through three different time periods. I enjoyed all of their stories."; "I love stories of women in wartime, I love stories of gardens and country life, and I love stories of loss and love. This story is all of that wrapped up beautifully with a bow. It is at times heartbreaking and at others so endearing. I would definitely recommend this to anyone who likes bittersweet stories of ordinary people in ordinary lives."
