About this listen

Maddie is restless in London. She has friends, a job and a sort-of boyfriend, but something in her life is missing. Then she visits the ancient village of Walditch, deep in the Dorset countryside. Something stirs in her, and on a whim she buys a centuries-old cottage and moves there three months later. Her friends think she's crazy, but for Maddie it feels like coming home.

Late at night in the cottage, Maddie hears strange noises and sees mist gathering indoors and out. When she starts investigating the cottage's history, she becomes drawn into the tragic story of a family who lived here 400 years ago. Meanwhile, Maddie starts to fall in love with a local carpenter – but he has a relationship already...

Can Maddie solve the riddle of the past? What is her connection with the family that lived there so many years ago? And can she and her true love ever be together?

Must be one of the best books ever- it was so enjoyable from start to finish ! Highly recommend for anyone wanting to get immersed in the past, the now and the future. Every opportunity to hear a bit more I took and now am sad the story has ended. Kate is certainly a great writer who can drum up colourful characters a wonderful interesting story line and atmosphere

A gentle story that wove seamlessly a tale of love lost and found of past and present. It is the first time I have read Kate Ryder but won’t be the Last. Great characters brought to life by the Beautiful voice of Aoife McMahon

Wonderful interesting characters

I so enjoyed this lovely and somewhat unusual story, that I literally could not put it down till finished. Narrated beautifully in a lilting and soft Irish voice, a story that goes back in time, only leaves it for me to thoroughly recommend it

Enchanting

The story was enjoyable, but a little too sweet and unbelievable.

If you don't believe in ghosts and reincarnation you may find this story a little "over the top"

Nicely narrated by Aoife McMahon.

Enjoyable.
