About this series

Despite the "crinkled pink petals strewn in the path of those who would have preferred red," four generations of Eliots have survived the War and are moving forward. The family's remarkable matriarch Lucilla is still with them, though she's facing the dark night of the soul.
All is turned on its head with the arrival of Sebastian, another survivor of WWII. He has a story far more painful than any of the Eliots. While with them, he wrestles with questions about his own disconnected existence.

    Few understand Elliot's anguish at losing Nadine. He came back from the war a shattered and lonely man. But his return to the Eliot family refuge on England's Hampshire coast is gradually pushing back the dark waters of soul and spirit. Nadine and her husband have settled with their children in a wonderful old inn not far away. Surrounded by a wild and mysterious wood, the guesthouse seems to be able to mendminds and bodies. Pilgrims from the past and new ones now finding their way to this healing comforting oasis sweeps readers into a story of intertwining destinies, of love lost and love forever gained.
