Rachel’s Garden

A darkly emotional book-club novel about a woman who creates a garden for everyone she has loved, lost or wronged — and discovers that grief, guilt and revenge all have roots.

At Maple Cottage, on the edge of Peckforton Woods, Rachel Jordan begins to build a garden of rooms: one for her dead mother, one for her lost father, one for the friend she betrayed, one for the husband she fears, and one for the child she longs to carry.

Perfect for readers of Louise Doughty, Barbara Vine, Claire Fuller and Daphne du Maurier, Rachel’s Garden is a dark, atmospheric work of literary psychological suspense about coercive control, infertility, motherhood, buried secrets and the poisonous beauty of revenge.
