What's not to like?' Trip FictionThe scent of freshly baked biscuits, lemon and aniseed reminds Elettra of her mother's kitchen.
But her mother is in a coma, and the family bakery is failing.
Elettra is distraught; she has many unanswered questions about her mother's childhood - Edda was a secretive woman.
The only clue is a family heirloom: a necklace inscribed with the name of an island. Elettra buys a one-way ticket to that island, just off the coast of Sardinia.
Once there, she discovers a community of women, each lost in their own way.
They live in a crumbling convent, under threat from the local mayor and his new development plan.
It is within the convent's dark corridors and behind its secret doors that Elettra discovers a connection to her mother's past.
She also falls in love again: with friendship, baking and adventure. **Features real recipes throughout including aniseed bread, rose- and honey-infused wine and spiced biscuits**
