About this listen

Brought to you by Penguin.

Every family’s story starts somewhere.
Alice and Tom’s begins here.

On the eve of her sixteenth birthday, Alice Jansen collects her treasures – the keepsakes, figurines and mementoes that help her make sense of her fragile family. But the next day her heart is broken, and the final treasure, a gift from her father, is lost. Two years later, Alice answers a phone call from a stranger and runs away to New York, and tries to forget her last golden summer at the orchard on the banks of the Hudson.

Tom Raven can’t understand why he keeps losing so many of the things and people that really matter to him, but he knows for certain that something important is missing from his life. One day, he remembers a forgotten letter and makes a phone call, then leaves Sevenstones, the only place that feels like home, for a strange city…

Harriet Evans’s gorgeous novel is the captivating story of Alice, Tom, and Sevenstones. Of a family and a house over fifty years and three generations, of their beginning and their ending, and of finding the treasures that symbolise the most important memories in our lives.

I enjoyed the vividness of all the characters in The Treasures. The centrepiece of the house and it's history was fascinating and I am delighted that this is the first on a trilogy, I hope Harriet Evans is writing them quickly because I can't wait to read what happens next.
I loved the trans Atlantic narrative and the historical references, it really brought to life the vibrancy of what history has told us about that time. If you like Kate Morton books, then you'd enjoy this too.

Beautiful characters
