A welcome return to Vianne Rocher and the village in rural France that was the setting for Joanne Harris's remarkable and much-loved number one bestseller Chocolat. Perfect for fans of Victoria Hislop, Fiona Valpy, Maggie O'Farrell and Rachel Joyce. 'Vianne - unconventional, good-hearted, slightly magical - blows in like a refreshing breeze, forcing people to question their prejudices. A delight' -- The Times 'Expertly crafted, typically mouthwatering' -- Daily Mail 'This bewitching novel stirs the senses' - Good Housekeeping 'I found it unputdownable' -- ***** Reader review 'Brilliant and thought-provoking' -- ***** Reader review 'Superbly written and flows along beautifully' -- ***** Reader review 'Impossible to put down' -- ***** Reader review 'Absolutely enchanting' -- ***** Reader review ********************************************************************************* It isn't often you receive a letter from the dead. When Vianne Rocher receives a letter from beyond the grave, she allows the wind to blow her back to the village in south-west France where, eight years ago, she opened up a chocolate shop. But Lansquenet is different now: women veiled in black, the scent of spices and peppermint tea, and, on the bank of the river Tannes, facing the church: a minaret. Nor is it only the incomers from North Africa that have brought change. Father Reynaud , Vianne's erstwhile adversary, is disgraced and under threat. Could it be that Vianne is the only one who can save him now?
