Behind Closed Doors by Catherine Alliott

The page-turning new family drama from the Sunday Times bestselling author of A Cornish Summer 'One of those fabulous books that leaves you with a smile on your face and hope in your heart' MILLY JOHNSON 'Catherine Alliott at her very best' 5***** READER REVIEW 'Packed with fantastic characters, uncomfortable truths, and flashes of pure comedy. Who could ask for more?' JILL MANSELL _______ From the outside, anyone would think that Lucy Palmer has it all: loving children, a dashing husband and a gorgeous home. But when her marriage to Michael comes to an abrupt and unexpected end, her life is turned upside down in a flash. As the truth of her marriage threatens to surface, Lucy seizes the opportunity to swap her house in London - and the stories it hides - for a rural escape to her parents' farmhouse in the Chilterns. But Lucy gets more than she bargained for when she moves back to her childhood home, especially when it throws her into the path of an old flame. Coming face-to-face with her mistakes, Lucy is forced to confront the secrets she's been keeping from herself and those she loves. Is she ready to let someone in? Or will she leave the door to her past firmly closed . . . _______ 'Emotional and engaging, I was completely absorbed' Sarah Morgan 'Compelling' Heidi Swain 'I enjoyed every minute and couldn't put it down' 5***** Reader Review 'Emotional and affecting, this is an absorbing read' Sun 'Catherine Alliott is back with another warm, escapist read . . . wonderfully written' Woman's Weekly 'Engrossing . . . sparkles with wit' Best Praise for Catherine Alliott: 'A huge treat. Hilarious yet poignant' Sophie Kinsella 'Warm, witty and wise' Daily Mail 'Her writing is both intelligent and sparkling' Marian Keyes 'Hilarious and full of surprises' Daily Telegraph
