Welcome to Riverside Lane — where everyone knows your name . . . but not your secrets.

American Luca Tempesta arrives in the picture-perfect English village of Bray-on-Thames looking for a quiet place to disappear. With its riverside walks, cosy pub and close-knit community, it seems like the perfect place to hide.

In a village like this, it’s hard to stay hidden for long. Especially when one of the inhabitants is an ex-spy. Ivy Midwinter, now a devoted church volunteer, is sure Luca is hiding something about his past and she’s determined to find out what.

But it’s not as if Riverside Lane doesn’t harbour secrets of its own . . .

Cecilia Honeychurch is trying to mend a broken heart.

Joy Willoughby has everything money can buy, except control over her crumbling family.

And Amanda Jones is drowning in debt — and desperate for a story that could change everything.

Luca’s arrival sets off a chain of events no one could have predicted. Because behind every neat front door on Riverside Lane, there’s a story waiting to be uncovered . . .

A warm, witty and compelling tale of village life, unlikely connections and the secrets we all keep.

Perfect for fans of Faith Martin, Peter Boland, Veronica Heley and The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel.
