The Secrets of Sainte Madeleine / Bagshawe Tilly / Книга на Английском / Бэгшоу Тилли; Harpercollins, 2022

One family

Generations of secrets

It's time to escape to the chateau . . .

Elise is a true daughter of the chateau. She'd die before anything happened to Sainte Madeleine - even if it means betraying her own family.

Alexandre, Elise's brother, is destined to inherit - yet a dangerous rift with their father puts his future, and the chateau, in jeopardy.

And for distant cousin Laurent, his life-long love for Elise will always call him back to Sainte Madeleine.

But the peace of Europe rests on a knife-edge, and history has bigger plans than them all. Through love and war, danger and deceit, can the chateau - and the Salignac family - weather the storm?
