'Wonderfully written, this is one of the best reads this year.' Woman's Day

On the eve of the first world war, a little girl is found abandoned on a ship to Australia. A mysterious woman called the Authoress had promised to look after her, but the Authoress has disappeared without a trace.

In 1930, on the night of her twenty-first birthday, Nell O'Connor learns a secret that will change her life forever. Decades later, she embarks upon a search for the truth that leads her to the windswept Cornish coast and the strange and beautiful Blackhurst Manor.

Upon Nell's death, her grand-daughter, Cassandra, comes into an unexpected inheritance. Cliff Cottage and its forgotten garden are notorious amongst the Cornish locals for the secrets they hold, and it is here that Cassandra will finally uncover the truth about her family and solve the century-old mystery of a little girl lost.

'Morton excels at creating absorbing mystery. This tale, like the maze in the garden of the title, is a fine place to lose yourself.' People (
