| Publisher Description: Clare is chilled by her mother's warnings to stay away from Ravensmere, but she knows she has to go there - it is not a choice but a compulsion. And she only intends to stay a few weeks anyway, just until she goes to university in the autumn. Ravensmere is a strange, enchanting place, but Clare grows increasingly disturbed. How come the local villagers appear to know her? Why is she having odd visions? And who is the attractive, leather-clad stranger who is watching her? What is the power of the Benison and why must she visit the China Garden in the middle of the night? Ravensmere casts a magical spell, drawing her into a mystery that stretches back over thousands of years. Clare knows that Ravensmere and the valley are in danger and that time is running out - but will she risk her future to save it? The China Garden is a haunting novel of an ancient legend, family secrets and young love. Liz Berry, author of Easy Connections, Easy Freedom and Mel, is at her most readable here, in a heady mixture of romance and mystery. |
