'Full of warmth, fun and feel-good factor' #1 Sunday Times Bestseller Katie Fforde

We regret to inform you of the passing of your great-aunt, Matilda Hartley. As the sole beneficiary of her estate, you have inherited her business, The Olde Curiosity Shop, at no.17 Curiosity Lane, Puffin Island.

But then the shop’s lodger, Daniel, turns out to be her meet-cute from the train ride out, a mystery wrapped in a vintage wedding dress is dropped in Fern’s lap, and Puffin Island quickly captures this devoted city girl’s heart.

Fern thought she knew exactly what she wanted, until she discovered what she never knew she needed...
