Little WoodfordHardcover, 1 June 2018

Chipping Woodford is a quintessential English market town, with its charming high street shops, allotments, thriving church and pub. One house - the Beeches - has been on the market for ages. No one seems to want this huge, rambling Victorian mansion, but news comes that it's been sold to a young widow from London.

Bex Millar and her children arrive in Chipping Woodford, hoping to escape from their previous life, and from a past involving a tragic incident with her stepdaughter. But it's hard to keep secrets in a small town, especially when you employ a cleaner who loves to gossip and when the formidable town councillor and arch busybody, Olivia Laithwaite, is on your case.

Bex tries to integrate herself and her family in their new community. She joins a pub quiz team and gets a job in the local bookshop. But when the truth about her past finally emerges, it threatens to destroy her dream of an idyllic life in sleepy middle England.
