When Maudie Todhunter finally decides she must sell Moorgate, her beautiful farmhouse on the edge of Bodmin Moor, she anticipates strong objections from her late husband's family - particularly from her stepdaughter Selina, with whom she has never seen eye to eye. Selina resents the close friendship that her daughter Posy shares with Maudie, for it is a relationship that has always eluded her. Meanwhile Maudie fears that she has shattered Posy's dream of owning Moorgate one day.
But no one could have predicted what actually happens when Melissa Clayton comes to view Moorgate. For it is to take a week in winter, a very special romance and the magic of Moorgate to make each and every one of them realise that, at the end of the day, it is not the property but the people who really matter . . .
'A Week In Winter' is a truly mesmerising, deeply moving novel of family loyalty, love and forgiveness.
