Steam, scones and spirits. A sauna tested review. 😉
"This charming story unfolds in a cute litte Englisch tearoom. Underneath the light of a lighthouse, at the edge of the rough cliffs of Dover. Where the past refuses to stay buried. This cosy place soon reveals a darker undercurrent. A lingering tale of Family betrayal that seeps trough into the present.
Through Odette (ma Belle Mére 😉), we follow a curious and determined girl whose search for a calmer life brought her to this magical place.
The search for the truth of the origin and the past of this place, brings her every day a little closer to the ghost of Henry.
As she uncovers more, his presence grows from a whisper into something almost tangible, blurring the line between past and present.
At its heart, the book is about love, family, and the weight of secrets. The quiet certainty that truth, no matter how deeply hidden, has always a way of surfacing.
And while this might sound like the perfect fireplace read, I can confirm it also pairs surprisingly well with a sauna session.
A very big thank you to Mae, my dear, slightly unhinged (in the best way) friend, for crafting something so charming, enchanting and a wee bit eerie.
If this is what your imagination does on a “normal“ day, I’m almost afraid to ask what happens on your really inspired ones... but I’d happily keep reading 😉Thank you so much love."
