Summary

From the author of the Seven Sisters series, The Angel Tree is Lucinda Riley's compelling mystery of family secrets and forgotten pasts on the sweeping pastures of south-east Wales.

Read by the award-winning actor Juliet Stevenson (Truly, Madly, Deeply)

Thirty years have passed since Greta left Marchmont Hall, a grand and beautiful house nestled in the hills of rural Monmouthshire. But, after a tragic accident, more than two decades of her life have disappeared from memory. When she returns to the Hall for Christmas, she has no recollection of her past there.

Then, during a walk through the wintry landscape, she stumbles across a grave in the woods. Though the inscription is weathered, the headstone still tells her: a little boy is buried here.

The discovery strikes a chord in Greta's mind, igniting a quest to recover her lost memories. A quest that will take her deeper into her own life, and that of her daughter . . .

enjoyable family saga

very Maeve Binchy in its poor girl meta rich boy family drama. it's well written and has a few twists and turns and equally some obvious routes through the story. overall I enjoyed this and I have to say beautifully narrated, as usual, by Juliet Stevenson

No my favourite

Narration was a bit annoying. Especially with Chesca’s whining voice which made it hard to listen to at times. Story was written in Lucinda’s usual mode referring to past and present. A good plot though

Just Brilliant

I personally love Lucinda's books, hours and hours of great listening and Juliet's narration is suburb, best I have hear for a long time, the perfect voice to suit this story.
