The Cafe between Pumpkin and Pie

FROM THE BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF OUR HOUSE, WINNER OF THE CRIME & THRILLER BOOK OF THE YEAR AWARDCOMES A NAIL-BITING STORY OF TRAGEDY AND REVENGE

The outstanding new novel from the Sunday Times Top Ten bestselling author of The Garden of Lost and Found. 'It's a funny old house. They have this ceremony every summer... There's an old chapel, in the grounds of the house. Half-derelict. The Hunters keep bees in there. Every year, on the same day, the family processes to the chapel. They open the combs, taste the honey. Take it back to the house. Half for them -' my father winced, as though he had bitten down on a sore tooth. 'And half for us.'

A coffin is dug up by builders in the grounds of an historic convent - inside is the body of a young nun. In a city as old as London, the discovery is hardly surprising.
