Benbow
Hall and its walled garden are the steady centre in the otherwise chaotic
world of the Benbow and Leeming families. This epic novel - about a divided family reunited by a child conceived in
disturbing circumstances - is a story which reaches out from
Durham to America and to France in the years between 1906 and 1921..
In
her most ambitious and wide ranging work yet, Wendy Robertson weaves fact
and fiction into a powerful evocation of a world and a family changing in
response to social and political forces at the beginning of the new
century.
‘An
absolutely spellbinding story. Her best yet.’
